“Sardine Song”

“Oh for the life of a sardine, that is the life for me.” From Charlie Chaplin’s Limelight (1952), it’s “Sardine Song,” words and music by Chaplin.

Limelight is now available on-demand from TCM. If you’ve never seen it, don’t miss it.

  1. Coincidentally (or not?), we just put Limelight on reserve from our library system. Because, you know, it's a Norman Lloyd movie...

  2. Yes! Ben Mankiewicz mentioned that Lloyd and Chaplin began working on a treatment of They Shoot Horses, Don’t They? after this movie.
