Additional InformationChaplin's first feature. A sad comedy about a woman who abandons her child with the intention of committing suicide. The little Tramp finds the baby and takes him under his wing. When the woman, Edna, turns out to be an opera star five years later, she spends her extra time doing charity work for youngsters who live in the slums, hoping that she will find her son. Eventually, the truth comes out and the authorities take the baby away from Chaplin. He steals the child back, but is soon discovered and separated once again from him. A reunion at the mother's mansion resolves things happily, yet the earlier sombre tone prevails, making this sweet and heart-warming story resonate for the viewer.
