The Kid with Günter A. Buchwald and the Philharmonisches Orchester Freiburg

THE KID (1921), the story of the poor man and the foundling, is one of Charlie Chaplin’s most personal works. From his own childhood experiences in London’s poorhouses and orphanages, Chaplin developed the character of the “tramp”, the underdog with the attitude of a gentleman. What was new about his films was the combination of comedy and slapstick with pathos and human warmth. This also applies to the short film THE IMMIGRANT (1917). Here, too, Chaplin addresses pressing social issues that have lost none of their topicality even 100 years later. In both films, Edna Purviance, his favorite actress, is at his side and, of course, the Freiburg Philharmonic Orchestra performs live.
