a very entertaining and well make comedy . the story be pretty simple with the tramp ( charlie chaplin ) this time take a stage hand job at a circus where he unwittingly become the star of the show with his antic . the best moment of the film be the expertly choreograph comic routine . the climactic tightrope walk be a bit of a letdown next to the early and funny bit ( like the opening funhouse chase ) and but that be a small detraction . the unrequited love story add some much need depth to the film and give it that bittersweet quality that any good comedy need to be effective . chaplin here give u just a peek at that serious side of the tramp that we would see more of in his last two film . beautiful end .
