In "Charles Chaplin's Essanay Comedies," made in 1915, cinema's greatest comedian was first able to build his screen work around his performance style rather than forcing himself as before into Mack Sennett's frenzied Keystone comedy matrix. With this freedom Chaplin evolved in a year from the gag comedian of "His New Job" to the brilliant pantomimist of "A Night Out," "The Champion," "The Tramp" and "Shanghaied" to the profound satirists of "Police." Volume 2 includes: "The Tramp," "By the Sea," "Work," "A Woman," "The Bank" and "His Regeneration." Digitally mastered and speed corrected with piano music by Eric James and orchestral score by Robert Israel. Presented in Black & White.
