Directed and starring Charlie Chaplin
A tramp falls in love with a blind flower girl. She in turn mistakes him for a kind, wealthy gentleman.
SPOILER ALERT.
The tramp later prevents a drunken millionaire from committing suicide and is rewarded handsomely. When the millionaire wakes up sober, he rejects the tramp.
The tramp soon finds out the flower girl is ill, and takes on jobs to earn money to pay her rent and cure her blindness. When he meets the millionaire again, the tramp gets mixed up in a burglary attempt. Accused of theft, he narrowly escapes. He gives the flower girl some money before being caught and thrown in jail.
The tramp is a shadow of his former self when released from prison. In a twist of fate he meets the flower girl, now cured of her blindness. The movie ends with the girl recognizing the tramp as her suitor through the touch of his hand.
