„The Circus
Charlie Chaplin‘s new feature comedy for United Artists Corporation is to be The Circus. In it he will appear in his
time-honored make-up with all the circus, including everything
from the freaks to the trained fleas, as background for
his imaginative talents.
Reports are trickling in from the Chaplin studio
in Hollywood as to the wonderful touches that
the star is putting into The Circus. But reports are hardly needed
to project an idea of the opportunities the comedian
will make for himself before the broad and colorful setting
that ,The greatest show on earth‘ offers.
Chaplin is walking a tight rope. Chaplin as custodian
of the flea circus. Chaplin among the freaks. Chaplin
with the animals. Every phase of the big top offers endless
channels for the projection of Chaplin‘s marvelous
humor.
There will be the fine balancing portion of sentiment
in The Circus that Chaplin injects into all his
comedies. It is this wistful, elusive touch that sets Chaplin‘s
comedies definitely apart from the productions
of all other comedians.“ (...)
