Synopsis
A bientôt cinquante ans, Simon est un violoniste émérite et désabusé. Faute de mieux, il échoue dans un collège parisien pour enseigner le violon aux élèves de la classe de 6ème de Farid. Ses méthodes d’enseignement rigides rendent ses débuts laborieux et ne facilitent pas ses rapports avec des élèves difficiles. Arnold est fasciné par le violon, sa gestuelle et ses sons. Une révélation pour cet enfant à la timidité maladive. Peu à peu, au contact du talent brut d'Arnold et de l'énergie joyeuse du reste de la classe, Simon revit et renoue avec les joies de la musique. Aura-t-il assez d’énergie pour surmonter les obstacles et tenir sa promesse d’emmener les enfants jouer à la Philharmonie ?Actors

The film is based on the true story of the Windmill Theatre in London. Eccentric 70-year-old widow Mrs Laura Henderson purchases it as a post-widowhood hobby and appoints autocratic manager Vivian Van Damm. In 1937, they start a continuous variety revue called "Revudeville", but after other theatres in London copy this innovation, they begin losing money. Mrs Henderson suggests they add female nudity, similar to the Moulin Rouge in Paris, which is unprecedented in the United Kingdom. The Lord Chamberlain (Rowland Baring, 2nd Earl of Cromer) reluctantly allows this under the condition that the nude performers remain immobile, so the performances can be considered art, the equivalent of nude statues in museums.

The movie is set in London in 1914, on the eve of World War I (and the year Chaplin made his first film). Calvero (Chaplin), once a famous stage clown but now a washed-up drunk, saves a young dancer, Thereza "Terry" Ambrose, (Claire Bloom), from suicide. Nursing her back to health, Calvero helps Terry regain her self-esteem and resume her dancing career. In doing so he regains his own self-confidence, but his attempts to make a comeback meet with failure. Terry says she wants to marry Calvero despite their age difference, although she has befriended Neville (Sydney Earl Chaplin), a young composer Calvero believes would be better suited to her. In order to give them a chance, Calvero leaves home and becomes a street entertainer. Terry, now starring in her own show, eventually finds Calvero and persuades him to return to the stage for a benefit concert. Reunited with an old partner (Keaton), Calvero gives a triumphant comeback performance. He suffers a heart attack during a routine, however, and dies in the wings while watching Terry, the second act on the bill, dance on stage.
