Yes, it's another film we're going to describe as an all-time classic. Because it is.

A lovable tramp falls for a blind woman who sells flowers on the street and who mistakes him for a millionaire. Upon learning that she and her grandmother are to be evicted, the tramp undertakes a series of attempts to provide them with the money they need, all of which end in humiliating failure.

Both funny and touching, this showcases Chaplin at his best. - Empire
