Saw a clip of Chaplin getting a 12 minute ovation and it just made me want to see him in action because I am obviously aware of who he is, his impact etc but I had never sat through something he had made fully. This was obviously very different to what I am used to the only time I have experienced silent films is in the theater on Red Dead except it’s a bit weird if I start antagonising my own screen so I refrained from acting like Arthur Morgan and just enjoyed it. Really well made and actually funny I don’t know why but the scene of the man throwing bricks up to Chaplin on the scaffolding was so impressive I am not sure how they did the effect of the bricks being thrown that fast but I would love to learn more about how they made these shorts.

Adam yüz küsür yıl önceden ne işlere imza atmış, kesinlikle yaratıcılıkta sınır tanımıyor.
