Charlot danseur

Mar 09, 1914
Dans une salle de danse, un imposant clarinettiste est furieux de voir sa belle courtisée par un autre musicien et lui demande des explications. Charlot observe de loin et se garde bien de s'en mêler mais lorsque les deux musiciens repartent jouer dans l'orchestre, il en profite pour faire sa cour à la belle…Il s'agit du sixième court-métrage de Charlie Chaplin et Charlot est loin d'avoir trouvé son apparence définitive. En effet, dans ce film, s'il porte bien son chapeau melon et a sa célèbre canne, c'est un dandy sans moustache !

Charlot fait du cinéma
5.429
Le film se déroule dans les propres studios de la Keystone. Charlot qui flanne dans la rue devant les établissements de prise de vue, voit arriver les vedettes en voiture et les suit à l'intérieur. Là tout le monde s'affaire, vaque à ses occupations, tourne des scènes et on semble ne pas trop faire attention à lui. Mais toujours là où il ne faut pas, il renverse les décors ou pénètre dans le champ de la caméra. L'écart entre fiction et réalité qu'il ne maîtrise pas est bien entendu le prétexte à une série de gags car toujours aussi chevaleresque, il est toujours prêt à prendre la défense des jolies actrices, même si celles-ci sont en train de jouer la comédie devant la caméra !
