This film is presented by Silents, Please! STL and will feature a special introduction from SPSTL’s Kate Stewart.

Considered one of Chaplin’s best films, THE KID is a tender and humorous film, complete with Chaplin’s trademark pathos and social commentary. Paired with THE KID is the 1921 (often overlooked) film THE PILGRIM, when an escaped convict (Chaplin) evades the law by taking the clothes and role of a pastor in a small desert town.

Join Silents, Please! STL at Arkadin Cinema and bar on Wednesday June 14th at 8pm for a nice evening with The Tramp.

“To my mind The Kid is by long odds the best motion picture comedy ever made. It has more than humor; it has tenderness and literary charm. Incidentally it is the first child picture I ever saw that did not give me an acute pain to the bowels.” -Harry Carr, Los Angeles Times
