Chaplin did an amazing job with this film, especially when considering that it was done in the 1920's. For a silent movie, "The Kid" was very ahead of its time. The film had everything that a movie should have. There was action, It was sensitive and moving, and in the end Charlie got to live with the kid and his mother who abandoned him years prior The film is kind of an autobiography about Chaplin. …showed first 75 words of 668 total…

The other man was hitting everything else but him. He was punching right through brick walls, and bending street lights but not one time did he hit Charlie. This film shows how much of a genius Charlie is. He is a great film creator and a great actor.
