2.0 out of 5 stars This is only half of the movie, July 13, 2000

By 

Philip Williams - See all my reviews

This review is from: Young Charlie Chaplin [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a fairly well done movie that shows just how hard Charlie Chaplin's growing up years were. The movie shows his family falling apart and him nearly living on the street most of the time. The acting is well done and there are some humorous parts in it.

One odd thing about this movie is that the package says it is 60 minutes long when it is actually at least an hour and a half. The movie is suddenly cut off at the end with the words "To be continued". As the words disappear and the tape stops you feel like you spent an hour and a half watching only half of the movie. They apparently were planning to make a part two. As far as I can tell they never did. Because of this fact I would not recommend this movie to most people.

5.0 out of 5 stars Running time 160 min. not 60 min., June 20, 2003

This review is from: Young Charlie Chaplin [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I just finished watching Young Charlie Chaplin. The tape does say it is 60 min. long, but in reality it runs 160 minutes! Once you get to the part of the tape that says "to be continued", just fast forward a bit and the rest of the story is on the tape. The acting was very good. Twiggy was excellent, as was Ian McShane.

This is not really a review, as I haven't actually viewed this version, but I can explain why you feel as though you have only seen half the movie. This was made in England as a six-part television series, with each part running thirty minutes - hence the running time of the entire thing would be three hours. If it is true that this tape only runs for a little over an hour, then it must be missing quite a large part of it.
