The King of Masons

The greatest hero in film history, the unequalled Tramp, who lives a light-hearted and vagrant life, was the ideal inspiration for the as-yet unidentified creators of these short animated comedies. Building a tower of bricks, a dramatic duel with the Sun, the rescue of an innocent girl from villains – these charming scenes from 'The King of Masons' seem worthy of Chaplin himself.
