    The festival will allow people to watch the skilled works of many international filmmakers. And, who else then Big B would have realised the value of Charlie Chaplin’s first Mutual Film Corporation movie, Floor Walker. It presents Chaplin, as a customer who creates chaos in a departmental store and how he gets entangled in a wicked scheme of the store manager.
