BBC One

Introduced by Michael Bentine from the National Film Theatre, London

Great oaks from little acorns grow' so the saying goes and in this programme we look at the 'little acorns' (the very first films) of Charlie Chaplin, Harry Langdon, and Buster Keaton, and contrast them with scenes from their later films.
A BBCtv production in association with Mitchell Monkhouse Associates and Raymond Rohauer
