Charlie Chaplin is ridiculous in this
Why is he always over-the-top and cartoonish, trying to appease the little kids with his random fidgety gestures and dances???
shareIn this? That's what he does in every movie where he plays the Tramp.

Well, that was how he played the Tramp, in case you didn't know. Either you like it or you don't...

Silent movies are naturally over the top when it comes to gestures. A silent movie is basically one long game of pictionary, but instead of trying to have someone guess a one word answer they are trying to develop complex plots that viewers can connect to.
A comedy silent movie has to be even more ridiculous.
