I had the great honour of working with

Chaplin on the reconstruction of this movie in the late 60's.It is my favorite

Chaplin movie and really doe's not date a bit, a wonderful tragi/comedy set in and around the big top of the title.

Chaplin wrote the score and performs the title song. An hour and a bit of

sheer perfection.
