Highlights:
- An adaptation of a poem without any dialogs or even narration boards - a daring attempt and it is also successful in grabbing the viewer attention.
- The soothing piano music that accompanies the show onscreen for the entire duration.
- Chaplin has performed differently - He's not the usual cross-footed tramp here!
