Show, don't tell !




I haven't watched a Chaplin film for a very long time, and yesterday while watching "The Gold Rush" I also recollected of a few childhood memories! (how irrelevant?) The scene when the house is about to fall off the hill has been repeated in many other movies. It was definitely entertaining to see how the "little fellow" is trying his best to impress his lady. But my favourite one is probably "The Kid" because of Jacky Coogan. This cute little kid is simply amazing! It doesn't really matter what he is doing, his size takes the attention of the viewer and all you think is his sweet little face! I can not believe he was Fester in the Adams Family... kids should never grow up
