Synopsis:
Remarkable for its psychological nuance and its boldly modern perspective on an independent woman's search for fulfillment, Charlie Chaplin's long-overlooked silent masterpiece A Woman of Paris is a revelation. Chaplin confounded 1923 audiences with this unexpected foray into serious drama, and by ceding the spotlight to his longtime screen partner Edna Purviance. She is captivating as the vivacious Marie St. Clair, a “woman of fate” who leaves behind her small-minded village for the glamor of Paris, where she finds herself at the center of a Jazz Age whirl of champagne soirees, luxurious pleasure- seeking, romance, and tragedy. Putting aside his Little Tramp persona, Chaplin's second feature proved that, beyond being a comic genius, he was an artist of immense sensitivity and human understanding.
