& Chaplin in Burlesque „Carmen“ from V-L-S-E
Picture Is Set for Immediate Release,
and Is the Second Four-Reeler Featuring the Famous
Comedian – Subject Will Be Marketed on Open
Booking Policy
THE V-L-S-E announces the immediate release of
Essanay‘s new four-reel production, a burlesque
of „Carmen,“ with the great and only Charley Chaplin as star.
At any time the appearance of Chaplin in a new
role is something of an event in filmland, but his presentation
in a four-reel comedy is such an unusual occurrence
that it bids fair to rank as a genuine sensation. This is only
the second time that the famous comedian has
starred in a four-reel picture, the other occasion being his
appearance in „Tillie‘s Punctured Romance,“
last year.
Thanks to the open booking policy of the V-L-S-E, the
distribution of the Chaplin „Carmen“ picture will
mean that every exhibitor throughout the country will be given
an opportunity to obtain this much-desired attraction
for his house.
There is no doubt as to the eagerness of the motion
picture public to view the word‘s greatest mirth
maker in a new bid for popularity, and the fact that the fun
will be of an extended type, keeping the favorite
disporting himself, before the camera for four reels, is a sure
guarantee of the feature‘s success.
Those who viewed the film in private are a unit in declaring
it to be one of the most wildly amusing productions
yet screened for the purpose of enhancing the gambols
of the inimitable Charley. The weirdly burlesque tale
of the well-known opera furnishes the comedian with a wealth
of opportunity to exhibit his peculiar abilities.
