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.‘“
