Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Vagabond is a 1916 film written by, directed by, and starring Charlie Chaplin.In this two-reeler, Charlie is an itinerant violinist. The opening scene features Charlie at a bar trying to make some money by playing, only to stumble into a confrontation with a four-man band. The action then cuts to Charlie, on foot on a country dirt road as he is so often found. He stumbles across a Romani ("Gypsy") caravan, and notices a particularly pretty young woman (Edna Purviance, Charlie's regular leading lady) who is being held as a slave by one Romani couple. Charlie is smitten and determines to liberate the girl.

Beauty Equals Goodness: A pretty dramatic contrast between beautiful Edna and the hideous Gypsy hag who drives her.

Bar Brawl: Charlie starts one off when he goes into the bar and unwittingly collects the money for the considerably more competent band outside.

Contrived Coincidence: The artist who paints Edna's portrait gets it displayed in a gallery. The gallery is visited by a rich society lady, who just happens to be Edna's mother. The Gypsies kidnapped Edna many years ago, when she was a child.

Ceiling Cling: Charlie positions himself in a tree branch that might be nine feet off the ground. Charlie, wielding a wooden club, first knocks out Edna's slavemaster, then knocks out five of his buddies, leaving a pile of five unconscious men under the tree branch. No one ever looks up.
