Burlesque on Carmen is Charlie Chaplin's thirteenth and last film for Essanay Studios, released in 1915 and then later recut into a different version in 1916. Charlie Chaplin played Darn Hosiery and Edna Purviance played Carmen (novella). Carmen was very popular at this time and two films under this title had already been released in 1915, one by Carmen (1915 Raoul Walsh film) where Theda Bara played Carmen and one by Carmen (1915 Cecil B. DeMille film) where the part was played by Geraldine Farrar. Chaplin's version is a parody of DeMille's film, following closely its structure and using very similar sets and costumes.Review, synopsis and link to watch the film.
