Having spent so much time recently talking about films of the last 25 years, the guys at 1001 by 1 decided to jump in their time machine and travel back 90 years to celebrate the anniversary of a comedic classic. That’s right – this week Adam and Ian discuss their first Chaplin film be delving into “City Lights”. Join the crew as they discuss the multiple years of this film’s production, Chaplin’s multiple takes, and if his best films are actually in the book. Adam also interviews actor/clown/magician Chris Bange about Chaplin and other key comedic figures and just what it means to be a clown. Also, this week Adam recommends “Promising Young Woman” & Ian recommends “Ammonite” (both available to rent on most major platforms.”
