At the June Film Festival, I watched "The Circus" with my girlfriend. The mighty one hundred and ten people of the Majestic Grand Theater came to the old theater to watch a movie that was restored in 4K and was 93 years ago. The independent subtitle strips are extremely old school. Below the screen, you need to crane your neck to see clearly. In a huge movie theater, the audience in front of the audience needs to sway left and right, just like Guanyin with a thousand heads.
After a little over an hour, Chaplin and his elders are naturally capable of making everyone laugh to the end. At the beginning of the Sanmao Wandering Ji style, to the end of the Liu Chixiang style, a pair of golden boys and girls is completed, the purpose is to make the audience sympathize with him again.
During the filming of this movie in 1927, Chaplin: divorced Lita Grey and his mother died. The first Oscar was held in 1929. None of the four nominations for the film won, but Chaplin got a Special Award, "for versatility and genius in acting, writing, directing and producing The Circus". Chaplin is the all-powerful.
In California in 1927, city ladies wore short curly hair. Looking at the photos, Lita Grey even looked exactly like the circus heroine. After combing his hair with oil, the man put on a fedora hat and called his wife to help him buy a new Fedora. But the almighty Chaplin, shining with golden light, walked in a horoscope, despising all this nobleness.
I am surprised to think about it. After more than ninety years, we can still laugh together for the same thing. To watch black and white silent films in the theater, Chaplin is always the easiest and correct choice.
