„To see Charlie Chaplin again for the first time“
Editorial Content. „We saw Charlie Chaplin yesterday
for the first time. In seeing him we lost a distinction and broke
a vow. We were against Charlie Chaplin once, but
in those days we knew no more than was to be learned
in watching Nick Altrock, of the Washington Senators,
imitate his walk. Also, we had heard the plots of several Chaplin
films described by folk nascent from the picture house
and still bubbling. This intensified our prejudice, and we vowed
that although all the world was for him he should never
come into our life.
Now we are normal, and a minority of one has been
swept aside. Charlie Chaplin is alright. To our mind
he has the supreme gift of comedy – that shading of sadness
which lifts all fun-making. When Charlie Chaplin kicks
over a friend he does it without exuberance. He is wistful
even with a seltzer bottle.
We asked a Chaplin fan once what he would wish
if the gift were given him to satisfy his heart‘s desire, and he
replied: ,To see Charlie Chaplin again for the first time.‘“
