Anecdotes
In the 1969 reissue, the 80-year-old Sir Charles Chaplin sang the title song.

Gaffes
After the tramp washes the shaving cream from his face, he dries himself with a towel, but the towel never touches his face. (This is probably so that it won't mess up the stage makeup.)

Citations
The Circus Proprietor and Ring Master: Go ahead and be funny.

Versions alternatives
Charles Chaplin replaced the original credits of this film when he reissued it in 1969. In their place, there is an opening scene featuring Merna Kennedy on the trapeze while Chaplin sings a song, then the image fades to the credits of that version with no cast nor technical credits.

The Circus is probably Chaplin's most underrated film. It is (easily) one of the funniest movies ever, and the inventiveness of such shots as the Mirror Maze scene and the closing sequence are nothing less than brilliant. What separates Chaplin from other comedian filmmakers is his ability to evoke a sense of pity and/or sympathy for his character. How can you watch the closing scenes of this film and, even after all of the laughter, NOT sense a bit of melancholia welling up in your heart? Truly one of the greats.
