This classic Charlie Chaplin film will be remembered by me for a few
reasons. Firstly there is the amazing "Dance of the bread rolls". There
was the eating of the shoe. There were absolutely stunning special
effects in the scenes where the cabin is teetering off a cliff. All
outstanding.
But what stands out for me the most is when I saw it, it was with a live
rendition by the Ang Fang Quartet. These guys should do the score for
all silent films. Wholly enjoyable and much better than the horrifically
unsuitable music on the Chaplin short film box. Ugh.
