The films Charlie Chaplin made at the Essanay Studios in 1915 show some of cinema's greatest comedian's most individual work. As director as well as star he was able to make films around his own performance style rather than force himself into Max Sennett's frenzied 'beystone comedy' mode. Despite their huge importance and comic brilliance these films have rarely been seen in recent decades mostly because of poor or incomplete prints. This edition of all sixteen films in two volumes
