      @paul w I actually haven't seen it since 1979, and I hadn't seen City Lights at that point so I didn't know about the connection. Just watched it and I see what you mean. Though for me, it doesn't pack the emotional wallop of City Lights or Cabiria.

    Not only one of the greatest, most poignant endings, but Chaplin is able to convey so many emotions on his face in that brief fade at the end: love, happiness, fear, joy, sadness - all at the same time. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else who had had that ability. Just one of the greatest bits of acting, ever.

      That's true. But don't forget the change in facial expression on Virginia Cherrill's face the moment she realizes the truth. Given the fact that re-shooting this scene over and over again must have been living hell for her, the result is for the ages. For me personally, it is only beaten by Max von Sydow's mood swing in "Pelle the Conqueror" when his son tells him that his love interest's husband who had been presumed lost at sea had just returned home and he realizes in a second that his one shot at some happiness in life has been shattered.

    There’s so many beautiful things about this scene but for me it’s the look on Charlie’s face. You can feel everything he’s feeling: The fear that she won’t recognise him, the anticipation as she begins to understand, and the glorious glee he feels as she says “yes, I can see now”.
    Chaplin was truly the greatest of the greatest!

    I saw this film for the very first time some years ago, together with my nine years old grandchild, a girl. I don't remember exactly when in it I started to cry, but I remember I tried to hide for her I was doing so. That was impossible, and she looked at me and said : Why are you crying, grandad ? I tried to explain, but I don't belive she understood the reason. And now I saw this scene again but this time alone, and started crying again. What a great movie. What a great man. And woman.
    Love from Norway to all lovers of this great film.

    So beautiful...her acting when she recognises him by the touch of his hand and sees who it is and she is overcome with gratitude and emotion and suprise always gets me. And Chaplin...an angel fallen down to earth, a flower in the dust of the road. As Oscar Wilde said of St. Francis of Assisi in De Profundis: he had taken in mystical marriage when he was quite young Poverty for his bride, and with the body of a beggar and the soul of a poet found the way to perfection not difficult.

    So beautifully acted by both, this scene still stands up to anything cinema has produced to today, if you're a common regular human being you can understand Mr.Chaplin charter controlled anxiety is like would she be disappointed visually and well its me at the same time. She already had display her humanity when she followed him on the street to help out until till that time a stranger down on his luck., she remembered her past and was basically "paying forward " beautiful.

      And yet the ambiguity is that he loves her, and she is grateful, but it's impossible that she could love him back in a romantic way. So we have no idea what will happen after the film ends...

    3:25 "You can see now?"
    "Yes. I can see now. I can see things. T
    can see people. I can see the light and
    the city. I can see the flowers. But most
    of all, I can see the beauty in your heart. I
    can see the greatness of your love"
    That's what Charlie Chaplin left us.
