This looks like a 4 minute part from a larger movie. It comes from a old tape, with no information except the year 1930 on the reel.
I'm very interested in any kind of information about this movie.

  • Gees now I know where Bruce Lee got his inspiration from CC can kick ass love the bit with the pole and the handstand kick

  • I just love how here, as in a lot of his films he appears initially inoffensive and almost meek but then just starts kicking people's a**es! :D

  • all the best

  • Actually, this footage and other "bits and pieces" from the original "Life" project were included in this footage which is called "Police". At the very beginning of this Chaplin's work Chaplin comes out of jail and the caption says s/thing like "Once again at the mercy of the infinite cruelty of the world", which somehow anticipates "Modern Times". Anyway, pls see D. Robinson's "Chaplin. His life and art" as a ref.

  • I've seen it on one of my dvds, and seeing as we can score out the mutuals, first nationals, and united artists films, it's eitehr a keystone or essenay, and by the quality I'd say essenay, but the camera isn't serving the way chaplin directed with essenay so it's more likely to be a kestone, which means it was made in 1914/early 1915. And i'm about to check my dvds to double check becasue im certain this released.

  • well, it becomes quickly apparent that this footage is deffinately not from 1930, as charlie was well occupied with filming CITY LIGHTS, and that there doesn't look like a chaplin of about 40/41 (whichever side of his birthday). And it's definately not a Mutual!

  • he also used this set for "The Professor" he never released it.

  • the guy at the end and the place looks like its from "The Kid", but i'm sure it isnt.

  • I like your video clip and have rated it as awesome. Please check out my clip of silent movie star tobacco cards. They include: Charlie Chaplin, Rudolph Valentino, Mary Pickford, Lillian Gish, Tom Mix, Jackie Coogan, Harold Lloyd and many more.

  • This is probably an outtake from "Triple Trouble" which used a flophouse scene from Chaplin's never-finished feature-length film called "Life." As a previous poster said, Essanay scrounged together a bunch of unrelated Chaplin outtakes and used scenes in 1918 to create "Triple Trouble." Chaplin had left Essanay in 1915. Essanay went bankrupt shortly after "Triple Trouble" was released.
