Additional InformationOne of Chaplin's most highly acclaimed films, City Lights is both a classic and a personal statement in which the master of pantomime proves the eloquence of silence. Combining wonderful comedy in the finest Chaplin tradition and evocative drama, the Little Tramp falls in love with a beautiful, blind flower girl (Virginia Cherrill).
ReviewsLos Angeles Times - ...One of cinema's all-time weepers....Hilarious but also poignant..., USA Today - CITY LIGHTS opens with one of the funniest scenes in Charlie Chaplin's career and ends with his most sublime..., Chicago Sun-Times - If only one of Charlie Chaplin's films could be preserved, CITY LIGHTS would come the closest to representing different notes of his genius...
