The reason why I especially like Chaplin is probably related to my childhood impression. When I was a child, there was a time when one set or a few sets would not stop Chaplin's movies. I only vaguely remember that he was a cute child who turned into an angel. People, and the workers who turned around in the gears, grew up knowing that this is the two movies "Finding a Son and Encountering Immortals" and "Modern Times", Chaplin was the inspiration for my movies, and of course I was also a child. I have watched a lot of movies. I remember that there is a TV station in my home called Xinyang Economic Channel. It will show movies at twelve o’clock in the evening. I still don’t know why I chose such a time to show movies. I insisted on it until I could. I don't have much time to watch movies, but movies like "Jaws" and "The Old House" are the ones that have a deep impression on me. Why do I talk about this, even if I have seen so many movies that are more impactful and attractive for my age Movies, but the deepest memory in my memory is Chaplin's silent movies. Now that I think about it, I probably attribute the difference between the two to two words, advanced. Yes, advanced, Chaplin's films were born in an era when film art was flourishing but audio-visual technology was not so developed. There was no dialogue. The advancement of the plot and the creation of the atmosphere depended on the performances of the actors, the shots and the soundtrack, so for performance, Music requirements will be very high. There is a program called "Video Gramophone" on the Central Music Station, which repeats Chaplin's movies and Tom and Jerry every once in a while, which is deeply regarded as a classic.
Of course, you said that seven or eight-year-old children don't know any camera voice and performance art. What I remember is the story. Every Chaplin movie tells a good story, like the one in "Finding a Son and Encountering Immortals". Family affection, the love of "City Lights", the satire of capitalism in "Modern Times", these stories and performances are easy for children to remember.
Look at "Gold Rush" again. I remember this film as eating shoes. At that time, I thought it was ridiculous. How to eat shoes. After rewatching it today, I still missed a lot of things. I always like it in Chapkin movies. Playing the role of a small person, this time is no exception, called the little one, the unlucky gold digger, and finally became a millionaire by luck and kindness, and still has a beautiful return. This is a very Chaplin story, but compared to Chaplin's story "City Lights" and "The Circus" have a much higher degree of integration of elements and the degree of tension in the completion of their own plots, especially the scene of the house on the edge of the cliff. I think the only thing that can compare to it is the mirror room of "Circus", "The Circus". Department Store" roller skating and "Modern Times" got into the machine part.
Of course, in addition to the intense plot, it also perfectly shows some social realities, such as the greed of the gold diggers, the viciousness of killing people for gold, and the dancing girls' performances, all of which are particularly well depicted, so Gold Rush is recognized as the best Chappe. Lin's works are indeed beyond reproach. I personally like "Finding a Son and Encountering Immortals" the most.
In the end, our little girl (the dubbed version on Tencent Video, you will get used to it after listening to it) also successfully became a millionaire, and also ended up perfectly with the beautiful heroine, and became a millionaire picking up cigarette butts. Beelin's will definitely laugh involuntarily, and it is a bridge that appears in almost every Chaplin movie.
Finally, let's talk about the comedy movies that went to the Chaplin era, despite having better technology, there is no chance of the next Chaplin, it's all shit, I was lucky enough to meet Chaplin when I was very young , it's a pity that today's children can't meet.
