„Resolved, That Charlie Chaplin is without art“

Editorial content. „All Things Are Clear if You Own

      a Movie Mind.

      Veterans of the Picture Theatres Need Only a Hint

      to Ascertain Both Haters and Lovers.

      By Heywood Broun.

      ,Resolved, That Charlie Chaplin is without art

and is altogether detestable‘, was the subject

of the debate. We argued on the negative side. Our opponent

spoke first, and used the plot of a Chaplin comedy

as the framework for his argument. He told us how Chaplin

had done this with a seltzer bottle and that with

a broom, but when he came to the custard pie he could not

go one. At that point he was laughing so hard

at the recollection of the film that he was unable to continue

his denunciation of Chaplin. And we rested

our case right there.“
