charles chaplin

first of all: happy new year!
last week i watched a great documentary about charlie chaplin's life.
it really made want to see all of his movies. even though silent films are more than old-fashioned now, in those days his movies were striking and simply ingenious.

another interesting fact about charlie chaplin: in real life he looked very handsome, which is quite a contrast to his tramp character.

It's been a time, but years ago i watched a movie with Robert Downey Jr. as Charlie Chaplin - I liked it very much. Maybe you'll find a way to watch it one day... I always wanted to have a look at his complete works, too... (Unfortunately I didn't manage by now)

I found your blog weeks ago and always wanted to leave a comment - now i finally do. I like your page and hope that i'll manage to listen to your next show on the 17th of january.
Hope you don't mind that i already put your link into my "Where to surf"-Section?
