City Lights<\/b><\/i> is a 1931 American pre-Code<\/a> silent<\/a> romantic comedy<\/a> film written, produced, directed by, and starring Charlie Chaplin<\/a>. The story follows the misadventures of Chaplin’s Tramp<\/a> as he falls in love with a blind girl (Virginia Cherrill<\/a>) and develops a turbulent friendship with an alcoholic millionaire (Harry Myers<\/a>). Although sound films<\/a> were on the rise when Chaplin started developing the script in 1928, he decided to continue working with silent productions. Filming started in December 1928 and ended in September 1930. City Lights<\/i> marked the first time Chaplin composed the film score<\/a> to one of his productions and it was written in six weeks with Arthur Johnston<\/a>. The main theme, used as a leitmotif<\/a> for the blind flower girl, is the song “La Violetera<\/a>” (“Who\u2019ll Buy my Violets”) from Spanish composer Jos\u00e9 Padilla<\/a>. Chaplin lost a lawsuit to Padilla for not crediting him.<\/p>\n

With the aid of a wealthy erratic tippler, a dewy-eyed tramp who has fallen in love with a sightless flower girl accumulates money to be able to help her medically.<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n
