| Summary: | A tramp reluctantly takes a job at a middling circus and falls for a trick riding woman, who just happens to be the daughter of the overbearing circus owner. In the last film he made during the silent era, Charlie Chaplin shines as director, composer, and star. A gag-packed comedy full of audacious set pieces, it showcases silent cinema's most popular entertainer and ranks among Chaplin's finest.
