Charlie Chaplin - The Vagabond
Charlie Chaplin was the cinema's first superstar. Widely hailed as a comic genius, he developed his screen persona of the luckless Little Tramp early on. Soon he was directing his own films and refining movie comedy from pie-in-the-face broad slapstick to humorous portrayals of the human condition, combining hilarity, grace and pathos.
The Vagabond was Chaplin's third film with Mutual Films. Released in 1916, it co-starred Edna Purviance, Eric Campbell, Leo White and Lloyd Bacon.
