Google Doodle: OH CHARLIE CHAPLIN - "wandering angel"

Watch the funny clip with the famous protagonist Charlie Chaplin and then write short screenplays (dialogues of at least 4 replies) for different scenes in it. Use your imagination and be creative.
We may perform the best creations in class.



Find more videos like this on EFL CLASSROOM 2.0

ALTERNATIVELY, for more mature dialogues ( :-)) here's an awesome example of baby talk. Can you try to translate the essence of it into adult language?








And here's an anticipated bonus for the most creative writers: Victor Socaciu's hit - a great song for the great Charlie. Enjoy!

  25. Charlie: My moustache is too nice to hide behind a newspaper so I shall stop reading it.

    Police: Hey! I am the only one who is allowed to have a moustache around here.

    Charlie: But your's is horrible. Look at mine. I have the same as that German leader. I can't remember his name..

    Police: I don't care! You must leave here immediately as I need to impress everyone with my uniform and fighting skills.

    Painter: Hello. Would you mind holding the model in position? Otherwise it will fall over.

    Charlie: No problem. It is ok if I rest my hand just here..

    Painter: Look what you have done! You have destroyed my model you fool!

    Charlie: All that fighting with the policeman has made me hungry. I wonder how can I get one of those cakes?

    Cake seller: That dancing reminds me of Michael Jackson but you still need money. Money talks!

    Charlie: Right, I already messed with that artist so I may as well steal her painting. She probably deserves it. I heard that she is a racist.

    Cake seller: I hope this painting is good!

    Charlie: It is! It's better than the Mona Lisa!

    Cake seller: That's an awful painting! Also, who is Mona Lisa? Does she sing with Beyonce?

    Charlie: I would love to wear womens clothes. I haven't done that since I was 19..

    Police: Wow! Who is the sexy lady selling cakes? I must impress her with my mustache and money.

    Charlie: It feels quite strange wearing ladies knickers and it's also quite cold!

    Police: Hello. Do you sell any vodka or whiskey? No? Ok I shall have the sweetest cake from the sweetest cake seller please.

    Charlie: What a terrible chat-up line, get out of here!

    Police: Woah! That lady has an incredible moustache. It must be the cakes. Tomorrow I will buy 5 more!

    Cake seller: So can I have my clothes back please?

    Charlie: Certainly but I want to keep your knickers. I will give you 500 euro for them! Now I will also take a cake to help my moustache grow.

    Cake seller: You are a very strange man.

    Charlie: I know. That's why I have no friends and now I am going to find another policeman to play with. Ow! These knickers are making me jump!
