Editorial content. „REFLECTIONS AND NEWS OF THE

      SCREEN WORLD

      A CLOWN AS AN ARTIST

      Charlie Chaplin‘s New Comedy May Be Fractious

      but It Is Enjoyable

      By Mordaunt Hall

      The Circus,“ Chaplin‘s latest contribution to the screen,

may not rank with his previous production, The Gold

Rush, but with all its fractious episodes it is an enjoyable film

and one in which the past master in the art of clowning

himself emerges as triumphantly as he has done before.“ (...)

      „In this picture Chaplin has the brilliant idea

of pitting his fun-making ability against that of average

circus clowns.“ (...)

      Strand Theatre, 1579 B‘way (at 47th St.), New York.

      The Circus is released by United

      Artists in New York January 6, 1928.
