"City Lights" tells the story of a large-scale opening ceremony. After the speakers finished their speeches, when the statue was unveiled, they accidentally found a homeless sleeping on it. When the homeless was ready to come down, his pants were covered with the sword of the stone statue. I couldn't get down through it. His facial expression made me laugh out loud. He made a fool of himself again and again. After several twists and turns, he finally escaped. That's exactly what the classics are, and the opening is ironic. It was supposed to be a very solemn scene, but it was disturbed by the tramp hidden under the cloth. The antics of the tramp contrasted sharply with the anxious helplessness of the bureaucrats and nobles below. This contrast shows Chaplin's mastery. . It shows Chaplin's sympathy for the lower classes of people. The homeless man in the play was penniless, but he used the money he had to buy flowers for a blind flower girl, and inserted them in her chest. Is the girl really blind. But he did not expect that the girl accidentally splashed the water from the cup on him when she was drinking water. That's how the tramp fell in love with this girl. This hilarious plot design allows us to experience Chaplin's masterful talent while entertaining!
