Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Sidewalk Stories is a 1989 independent film written, directed by, and starring Charles Lane.It is a black-and-white silent movie, set amongst the poverty and homelessness of Greenwich Village. Lane plays a sidewalk artist barely avoiding starvation by drawing pictures of passers-by, including an attractive young woman (Sandye Wilson) who is drawn to him. He lives in the basement of an abandoned, condemned church. One night the artist's life is disrupted when he sees a man murdered in an alley. The robbers run away, leaving behind the man's toddler child, still in her stroller. The artist somewhat reluctantly takes responsiblity for the abandoned girl, and they bond.If any of this sounds familiar, it's because this film is basically a remake of Charlie Chaplin's silent classic The Kid. Compare The Artist, a 2011 silent film with a similar Retreaux style.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

The Bully: A much, much larger artist that sets up shop right next to the protagonist and tries to scare him off the corner. | |

Better Manhandle the Murder Weapon | |
| Sidewalk Stories / int_8ee710e7 | comment |
Better Manhandle the Murder Weapon: The artist actually pulls the knife out of the father's back. Nothing actually comes of this, although the artist at least is paranoid for a while about getting arrested. This may also explain why he doesn't turn the little girl over to the police. | |

Aside Glance | |
| Sidewalk Stories / int_e8e3807 | comment |
Aside Glance: Two. When the artist finds out that the attractive woman doesn't just live in the clothing store, she owns it, he shoots the camera a look of astonishment. When the woman holds back the man's coat as he's leaving, and suggests that she stay the night, he actually steps out of the scene and towards the camera, which he gives a meaningful stare. An imagined sex scene follows. | |
