His Prehistoric Past (1914, Charles Chaplin)

The Stop Button Posted by on Feb 23, 2012

Chaplin opens His Prehistoric Past setting it up as a dream sequence, which lets the viewer know the outcome can’t be too dramatic. But the setup is immediate–Chaplin falls asleep on a park bench–so the more relatable elements in the dream don’t have much substance. In the d read more

A Person in the Dark Posted by FlickChick on Feb 11, 2011

One of the reasons I love Charlie Chaplin's Little Tramp above all others is that he is romantic.

Before Edna Purviance (his leading lady from 1915-1923), Ch read more
