positive · AI labelView post →Premiered on this date in 1931: Charlie Chaplin's CITY LIGHTS. The first film of Chaplin's for which he composed the film score, along with Arthur Johnston. The music was arranged by Alfred Newman. CITY LIGHTS is widely considered to be Chaplin's greatest feature film. #filmsky #music #moviesky

positive · AI labelView post →Watching Chain Reactions on Shudder. Kinda wondering what kind of film career Takashi Miike would have had that screening of Charlie Chaplin's City Lights not been sold out.
neutral · AI labelView post →320.) City Lights (1931) When sound started getting popular in film, people were worried that the focus on dialogue over visual acting would cause film to lose its status as "the international language." Watching Chaplin be the last holdout of silent filmmaking makes me think they had a point.
positive · AI labelView post →Ferlinghetti reading his autobiography with a wailing jazz band comping behind him. More fun than the City Lights Bookstore movie, but I recommend you watch that too. #poetrysky #citylights #ferlinghetti #northbeach #poetryandbeats youtu.be/ezAv9BeakVE?...

neutral · AI labelView post →Post-Zatoichi I feel like the Criterion Collection is apologizing to us: Chaplin at his nearly his best in City Lights, Gerwig eclipsing Baumbach in Frances Ha, then the greatest anti-cop movie ever made (Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion).
positive · AI labelView post →Love what people feel compelled to add to IMDB. Person who wrote "everyone in this movie is dead now" under City Lights (1931), I think of you often and fondly
neutral · AI labelView post →When I'm POTUS, I'm gonna dictate that chain movie theaters show repertory films from the past 130 years. No reason AMC can't show Taxi Driver sometimes or Cinemark can't show City Lights. We can't really relegate these films to home video only.

positive · AI labelView post →I know we joked about it on the Patreon episodes, but discussing City Lights this week I think it's apparent that after Zatoichi we need to relearn how to do the podcast. Thankfully, Criterion is giving us an amazing run of films to recover with.

Because it's regarded by many (inc me) as having the greatest ending in movie history. It's an an absolute masterpiece imo. (you'll need a toni tissues!)
unlabelledView post →The first time I saw City Lights, I was able to see it in an old movie palace and the intro feature was Easy Street accompanied by a live organist. It was a perfect intro to that film. City Lights -- to my mind -- is the best romantic comedy ever made. Or at least my favorite.
unlabelledView post →Charlie Chaplin resisted making movies with sound longer than almost any major filmmaker, famously releasing City Lights (1931) and Modern Times (1936) as silent films with musical scores and sound effects but no spoken dialogue. He did not make a fully-talking film until The Great Dictator in 1940
