SEPTEMBER 29, 2021 @ 1:00pm / 4:00pm / 7:00pm (Pacific)
2021 marks the 107th anniversary of Charlie Chaplin's first appearance as "The Little Tramp," his chaos-prone but balletically nimble underdog everyman, often unlucky, always plucky and, eventually, iconic the world over.
To celebrate National Silent Movie Day on Wednesday, September 29th, Rialto Cinemas presents a selection of Chaplin’s most beloved films featuring his Tramp persona in gorgeous new restorations. Our program features six short films Chaplin made for the Mutual Film Corporation in 1916 after signing a then-unprecedented contract for $670,000 and being given complete creative control as writer, director, producer and star. Hailed as the cinema's first genius, Charlie Chaplin set the standard for silent screen comedy as a performer, writer and director. The iconic Little Tramp, his signature screen persona of the silent era, remains such an enduring figure that even today he is recognizable by just his silhouette. This brilliant comedian was, for a time, the single most popular entertainer on the planet, celebrated the world over, connecting with audiences in the universal language of silent screen comedy.
