& Chaplin Gets Married in His
Latest Picture, „The Immigrant“
It has come at last! Every one felt that it was impending,
and it is rather a relief to have it over with. Charlie
Chaplin is married. It happened yesterday in „The Immigrant.“
Charlie has been leading up to something of the
sort, and there were touches of sentiment in his last few
pictures which made those accustomed to reading
the stars, fixed and movie, feel that one ought to look for the
most. There was no telling just how far he would
go, and he has gone so far as to purchase the license.
Some time ago it was rumored that Charlie
was going to forsake broad comedy for polite comedy, and
immediately the refining influence was noticeable
in his dress. Yesterday one woman who witnessed „The
Immigrant“ at the Rialto, exclaimed: „Hasn‘t Charlie
got the most perfect nose!“ So, from now to the eye as well
as to the risibilities of his audiences.
Naturally, the first scene in „The Immigrant“ was on
the deck of a ship. There is a splendid rear view
of Charlie leaning over the rail, which dips and sways
perilously; his feet are waving in the air, and one
feels that there can be but one interpretation of his attitude.
One is mistaken, however, for Charlie comes up
smiling bearing triumphantly a large trout on a line. He has
been fishing!
He is the only one who anticipates the dinner bell,
and one feels that the mal de mer of the other
immigrants is not assumed. He must be seaworthy, indeed,
who can resist such pitching and rolling as this
vessel indulges in.
It is on deck that Charlie meets his fate. He is separated
from her in the excitement of landing, but finds her
again in a restaurant. Unfortunately neither is equipped
with the wherewithal to appease their appetites,
but, needless to say, they do not go unfed. After the meal
is over Charlie borrows $2 from a new found friend
and coyly leads his fiancée to the Bureau of Licenses. Here
they are both afflicted with stage fright, and their
hysterical laughter is only checked by the license clerk,
who grabs Charlie and drags him into the office.
Charlie performs the same service for his fiancée, and
it is all over.
„The Immigrant“ is the most amusing thing that
Chaplin ever has done. H. U.
