The Kid1921 movie

The Kid is my favourite silent comedy of all time. Even if you usually hate silent comedy, I urge you to give it a try. Even if you hate silent comedy so much that the repeated use of the phrase "silent comedy" in this paragraph alone is making you feel a little nauseous right now, I am confident that The Kid will win you over.

Charlie Chaplin plays the little tramp who finds himself raising a small child. It's funny, sad, and only 50 minutes long - do yourself a favor and seek it out, you will thank us.
