Charles Spencer Chaplin has made his appearance in a good number of his movies as a screen persona called The Little Tramp. It was in 1914 that The Little Tramp was seen on screen for the first time in the movie The Kid Auto Races in Venice. The Tramp that acted first on the stage was not the same who made its first glimpse on the screen in the eyes of the world. It was perhaps a coincidence that supported Chaplin's vision of the world with no order. The very first movie in which he acted in the costume of The Little Tramp was Mabel's Strange Predicament. The Kid Auto Races in Venice was premiered on Feb 7, 1914, two days prior to the release of Mabel's Strange Predicament.
