Don't Miss This FIlm!

Rating: 10/10 (31 December 2011)

You know you've seen a masterpiece when you walk out of a film and shed tears of joy or felt something stir within your soul. This is just the show which will make you glad that someone has the passion to make a black & white silent film and share it with the world.
I was thoroughly blown away by the leads and practically everyone else in the film who has managed to convey their feelings, humor, anguish, anger etc just with their facial expressions. In modern times where movies are heading towards high definition IMAX, CGI and what not, a black and white seems like a step back, much less a silent one. But this film is definitely worth your time if you're a fan of classics. Easy to comprehend and very enjoyable to watch. It's no wonder this film is so highly lauded and expected to achieve more at the golden globes and Oscars.
I just wonder if more films like this that seem to have moments of magic will continue to be produced.
