The one-and-a-half hour movie took two days to watch. Behind the absence of lines are more details waiting to be noticed, so I watch it more carefully than other movies, and my eyes dare not leave the screen for a second.
Chaplin, the legend of the last era, has always stayed in my mind as a classic, but this movie is still the first movie of him that I actually watched, and the first silent movie I watched. Strange, for the first time I felt as if the lines were really not that important, and there was no obstacle to understanding the plot. The homeless person played by Chaplin is amazing, and his actions are not very deliberate but people can't help laughing. A cute and funny image of a homeless person came out. When I saw the female sculpture on the street, I couldn't help but take a peek. I almost fell into the well and jumped up to have a theory with the other party. As a result, when I saw the other party's tall horse, I would admit it for a second. Full of love and hope, he saved the rich man who was drunk and became a temporary brother with the rich man (only the rich man is drunk). It is precisely because of this kindness and enthusiasm that in order to help the blind girl who sells flowers, the homeless go to a boxing match to fight an opponent who looks several times stronger than him. The bum's wit almost allowed him to win the boxing match and get the prize, but he eventually fell. There are not so many miracles in life, and it is impossible for Xiaoqing to always win. Originally, Liu Anhuaming got the help of the rich man, but was disturbed by two real robbers. At the critical moment, the rich man woke up and asked who he was. For the sake of the girl, the homeless had to rob money and stay in jail until the fall.
After being released from prison, he turned back into the ragged homeless man at the beginning of the film, but at this time he met a girl whose eyesight had recovered and opened a flower shop. I read this part over and over again. The homeless man went from surprise to embarrassment and wanted to run away, but was stopped by the girl who gave him flowers and the girl held his hand. The story came to an abrupt end when the girl recognized her. The eye contact between the two actors in just a few minutes was amazing. But then what? The tramp is like a light that illuminates the girl's life, but when the girl sees him, she realizes that he is not the kind and graceful rich man she thought, still kind and graceful, but just a homeless man .
