The Bank
1915 · 25 min · US
Directed by Charlie Chaplin
Chaplin, 1915, Essanay: a janitor at a bank who loves the secretary and dreams she loves him back. Edna Purviance. The robbery, the vault, the flowers he thought were for him. Directed by Chaplin. It is the Tramp as a man whose inner life is better than his job, and the film is cruel enough to wake him. One of the Essanays where the pathos is not a garnish. It is the plot.
