Description of this Poster The Kid Charlie Chaplin
The Kid is a 1921 American silent comedy-drama film written, produced, directed by, and starring Charlie Chaplin, and starring Jackie Coogan as his foundling, adopted son, and sidekick. It was Chaplin’s feature-length directorial debut. It was a huge success and was the second-highest-grossing film of 1921. Now considered one of the greatest films of the silent era, it was selected in 2011 by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.
With much anguish, an unmarried mother abandons her child, placing him in an expensive car with a handwritten note: “Please love and care for this orphan child.” Two thieves steal the car and leave the baby in an alley, where he is found by the tramp. After trying to entrust the child to various passersby, he finds the note and his heart melts. He takes the child home, names him John, and sets up his furniture. Meanwhile, the mother changes her mind and returns for her baby; when she learns that the car has been stolen, she faints. Five years pass. The Kid and the Tramp live in the same small room; they have little money but a lot of love. They support themselves through a little scheme: the kid throws stones to break the windows so that the tramp, who works as a glazier, is paid to repair them. In the meantime, the mother has become a wealthy actress and gives charity, giving gifts to poor children. By chance, while doing so, the mother and the boy unknowingly cross paths. Later, the child gets into a fight with another boy from the neighborhood as local residents gather to watch the show. The boy wins, which draws the ire of the other boy’s older brother, who attacks the bum as a result. The mother breaks up the fight, but it resumes after he leaves, and the bum continues to hit the “big brother” in the head with a brick between blows until he walks away. Soon after, the mother advises the bum to call a doctor after the boy becomes ill. The doctor discovers that the bum is not the boy’s father and notifies the authorities. Two men come to pick up the boy to take him to an orphanage, but after a fight and a chase, the bum and the boy remain side by side. When the mother returns to check on the boy, she meets the doctor, who shows her the note (which he had taken from the tramp); she recognizes it as the one she left with her baby years before. Now fugitives, the tramp and the boy spend the night in a flophouse. Its owner learns of a $1,000 reward offered by the authorities and takes the boy to the police station while the tramp is asleep. As the tearful mother finds her lost child, the tramp frantically searches for the missing boy. Unsuccessful, he returns to the door of their humble dwelling, where he falls asleep, entering a “dreamland” where his neighbors have transformed into angels and devils. A police officer awakens him and leads him to a mansion. There, the door is opened by the mother and the boy, who jumps into the arms of the tramp, who welcomes him.
