It's true. Chaplin fans should give the shorts I listed a shot. At least give The Immigrant and The Adventurer a shot. Both are really great.

I'm sick, so I will offer 10 rep points to the first person to volunteer to complete this. You must use the same formatting that we have used in previous threads. Please do not cut corners. Films should have at least ten points. Films that have less than ten points may be OK if they were mentioned by at least three people. If there are not ten films that meet these requirements, please list a Top 9 or Top 8, etc.

A Trip to the Moon(1902) And I have seen The Great Train Robbery, but I don't really care for it all that much. __________________ Good Lord, son, no, I do not. I was, in days gone by, a believer. But alas, I came to this beleaguered land, and the God in me just . . . evaporated. Let us change our toast, sir. To the God who has forgotten us. Down the Rabbit Hole

Spinal Moderator Rep Power: 16 Rep Points: 2959	I'm sick, so I will offer 10 rep points to the first person to volunteer to complete this. You must use the same formatting that we have used in previous threads. Please do not cut corners. Films should have at least ten points. Films that have less than ten points may be OK if they were mentioned by at least three people. If there are not ten films that meet these requirements, please list a Top 9 or Top 8, etc. __________________ A Town Called Panic (Aubier/Patar, 2009) *1/2 You, the Living (Andersson, 2007) 1/2 Godzilla* (Honda, 1954) * Looney Tunes: Back in Action (Dante, 2003) 1/2 Inception (Nolan, 2010) ** Blue Beard (Breillat, 2009) * Despicable Me (Coffin/Renaud, 2010) The White Ribbon (Haneke, 2009) * The Stone Raft (Sluizer, 2002) How to Train Your Dragon (DeBlois/Sanders, 2010) 1/2 The Fly* (Neumann, 1958) ***1/2
