City Lights is a 1931 American romantic comedy film written by, directed by, and starring Charlie Chaplin. The story follows the misadventures of Chaplin's Tramp as he falls in love with a blind girl (Virginia Cherrill) and develops a friendship with a millionaire (Harry Myers).

Although sound films were on the rise when Chaplin started developing the script in 1928, the director decided to continue working with silent productions. Filming started on December 1928, and ended in 1930. City Lights was immediately popular upon release, with positive reviews and box office receipts of $5 million.

Today, it is thought of as not only one of the highest accomplishments of Chaplin's prolific career, but as one of the greatest films ever made. Although classified as a comedy, City Lights has an ending widely regarded as one of the greatest, and most moving in cinema history.
