Charlie Chaplin’s Heart-Warming Masterpiece “THE KID” Screen Nov. 2nd & 3rd at 7:30 pm.
Edison St/The Organ Loft with Blaine Gale at the Wurlitzer In 1921 Chaplin moved into feature-length
films with the making of “THE KID”. It remains one of his best loved films as he introduced the remarkable
Jackie Coogan as the orphan whom he rescues from the streets. Chaplin and Coogan are pure
magic as they appear together in this heart- warming masterpiece.
Blaine Gale will provide the musical score on the wonderful Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ using
themes written by Chaplin himself. This is “a picture with a smile—and perhaps a
tear.” In the process of making “The Kid,” Chaplin integrated slapstick comedy with high drama for
the first time in a feature-length comedy. He devoted18 months to the filming after discovering Jackie
Coogan — and together they created a masterpiece!
