City Lights

While I am not giving this five stars, I reccomend that everyone go and watch this film just so they have the experience of watching a well-made silent film. Also, so that they can say they have actually seen a Charlie Chaplain picture. The plot moves along at a nice place alternating between the rich benefactor and blind flower girl subplots. The music, which Chaplain wrote himself is enjoyable and quite memorable, likewise, however the true genius of the movie is that Chaplian truly is one of the greatest physical actors of his generation. Also like many people who have seen this movie, I'd have to say the ending scene is perhaps one of the greatest moments committed to celluloid proving to be both satisfying but not overly saccharine for the audience.

Who knows, maybe I'll even go watch more silent films due to this?
