The film directed and acted by master Charlie Chaplin has such a high position on the list because the content of the film, in a comedy way, reflects the horror of an era, and tells it in an inspirational way Everyone, no matter what the world is like, no matter how bitter, poor, or unfair, we must go on, go on well.
The heroine, Paulette Goddard, is so beautiful and looks exactly like Nicole Kidman after plastic surgery.
Looking at Chaplin reminds me of a Chaplin inflatable from my childhood. When I was 5 years old, when I traveled with my parents to Beijing, my father bought it for me. Although I had never seen Chaplin's movies when I was a child, I often heard praises for Chaplin from my father's mouth. , In fact, I didn't know at the time that Chaplin died two months after I was born, so I took this cute blowing toy, played everywhere, took pictures everywhere, and I still have this old photo.
After a lapse of 30 years, I finally downloaded the first Chaplin movie, still a 1080 HD restored version, and finally understood that Chaplin's greatness is not only his comedy talent, but through comedy. Tell us a lot…. The plot has moved me to this day.
Although the film is a silent film, it is also Chaplin's first vocal performance, and the songs in the film are sung by him.
When I was a child, I learned an anecdote through newspapers or magazines. The United States held a parody show of Chaplin, and he himself participated in it himself, and he actually won the third place. Although I don't know if it's true or not, if it's true, it shows how huge his influence was at that time.
So far, it has only been imitated, never surpassed.
