    God said there should be light, so there was Chaplin! I seem to have seen the tears and sadness of people watching this silent film during the Great Depression nearly a hundred years ago. But when Roosevelt became Obama, and when the 1930s was about to turn into the 20s of this century, there was still a young man who had not known the world and left tears of joy and sorrow for it. The city homeless and the blind flower girl, starlight in black and...

    The boxing scene made me laugh. And when he was about to try to get close to that person before going on the court, he acted so arrogant...

    When the blind woman saw it again, she felt sorry for the homeless man at that time, because he loved very...

    Although it is a silent film, I accidentally discovered that it still has sound, but there is no dialogue music and a small amount of sound effects. Some of the actions are exaggerated, and it feels like a funny drama. The sense of comedy in the back is still full of ps: it seems that it is the first time to really appreciate the movies of the comedy grandfather Chaplin. When I was a child, I seemed to be watching...

    On the flight back from @Aeroflot. I didn't like it as much as "Modern Times", but I was still very moved to see it, especially when the two reunited at the end. How many things in the world have blinded true feelings. If you are deceived by your eyes at the beginning, how can two hearts come together? Tomorrow the birds will...

    Every movement of Chaplin can be found in modern comedians. This is the influence of the master on art. Stephen Chow imitated him, Jackie Chan imitated him... You see, you are still amused by them! Thinking about it this way, 1931 doesn't seem so far away, and the story he tells will move you through the screen! And you will silently encourage in your heart: Come on diaosi, come on diaosi! In the end, he succeeded in...

    Neither Keaton nor Chaplin, or any great comedian, would ignore the comic effect of boxing. But in the same boxing scene, Keaton's skill lies in the humor produced by quick and agile avoidance, while Chaplin is better at creating complex changes in a small range of...

    I really don't want to make random comments, but I have to agree with my classmates - "Today this is a rotten film, and that rich man is a scumbag." Forgive the impetuousness of this era. The heroine looks like Drew...

    Can you see now? Yes, now I can see. Those newsboys who always tease (playing marbles and smashing) homeless people, and the rich man who doesn't recognize homeless people once he wakes up, make the film really interesting and sad. The final recognition is also beautiful and real. Kind people will eventually see love inside through rich and poor, funny and gorgeous...
