Saturday Cinema 1: The Kid

on BBC Two England

starring
Charlie Chaplin Jackie Coogan
Six-year-old
Jackie Coogan as the Kid - a miniature version of the tramp - is acquired by mistake in infancy and brought up in a world of harshness and poverty by Charlie. A splendid combination of slapstick and sentiment, this is a 'picture with a smile -and perhaps, a tear'.
Screenplay, music, production and direction by CHARLIE CHAPLIN
