A KINO INTERNATIONAL RELEASE

“If only one of Chaplin’s films could be preserved, “City Lights”:/en/articles/4 would come the closest to representing all the different notes of his genius. It contains the slapstick, the pathos, the pantomime, the effortless physical coordination, the melodrama, the bawdiness, the grace, and, of course, the Little Tramp — the character said at one time to be the most famous image on earth.” Roger Ebert.
