5.0 out of 5 stars
Yes, it IS an old set of movies......
Some may find the grainy quality of Chaplin's early movies to be disappointing. However, we must look at the time in which they were made. A year ago when I brought to my family the first Chaplin movie, 9 year old Katie said, "this will be boring.....there's no talking!!!" After watching "The Gold Rush" she and her 12 year old brother were...

Very early Chaplin

Some may find the grainy quality of Chaplin's early movies to be disappointing. However, we must look at the time in which they were made.A year ago when I brought to my family the first Chaplin movie, 9 year old Katie said, "this will be boring.....there's no talking!!!" After watching "The Gold Rush" she and her 12 year old brother were enchanted! Since then, they have become "Charlie" fans, and the older the film, the better. The pathos that Charlie brings to ALL his films knows no boundaries. In our modern day life, it is easy to want the bells and whistles of modern films, BUT the bells and whistles were NOT available 85 years ago! These movies are priceless, and well worth watching. And these movies appeal to all, much like Shakespeare's plays appeal to all eho care to learn. |
