The Face on the Barroom Floor (1914)
Directed by Charlie Chaplin
Overview
A painter turned tramp (Chaplin), devastated by losing the woman he was courting as a wealthy man, finds himself drunk and getting drunker by the minute with some sailors at a bar until he’s literally falling down. He keeps futilely trying to draw the woman’s picture on the floor with a piece of chalk until he finally passes out cold (or perhaps dies, as in the poem) at the end of the film.
