Sorry, pal. I made note of the
mismatch of two Chaplin shots
in a key moment of the film and it
is rest of the "Chaplinistas" who
are haranguing about this factual
observation. |

Are you in love with her?
Virginia Cherrill was at best a semi-
professional actress---which is why
Chaplin had a lot of trouble with
her. |

ZZzzzzz...I do not remember where
I picked up the idea, Mr Prosecutor.
But if you prefer, I will stipulate that
Chaplin was altogether pleased with
Cherriill's acting and therefore the
mismatched shots at the end were simply
a product of sloppy craftsmanship. >> Stay informed about: Chaplin's "Imperfect" Technique |

Wow! A twofer. It's both a total non sequitur AND assumes false
causality. What does your response have to do with the *performance*?
Was that the same kind of trouble CC had with Edna? Or Brando? >> Stay informed about: Chaplin's "Imperfect" Technique |

I wrote "her performance >on film<." This is all an audience can
judge her by, and on film she is perfection. It helps if you actually
read what I wrote, but then reading comprehension has never been one
of your strengths. >> Stay informed about: Chaplin's "Imperfect" Technique |

LOL! The last actress I had an adolescent crush on was Natalie Wood
in SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS, and that was 45 years ago. >> Stay informed about: Chaplin's "Imperfect" Technique |

No, the real reason he had trouble with
her was that she was a fascist who had
threatened to expose his secrer CPUSA
membership. >> Stay informed about: Chaplin's "Imperfect" Technique |

I think your praise of her performance
is excessive and so indicates an
adolescent crush. >> Stay informed about: Chaplin's "Imperfect" Technique |

Mr. Shelps seems to think that everyone is adolescent but himself--
a classic case of projection.

No, mainly you...but Richard's effusive

to me to indicate a valentine crush, >> Stay informed about: Chaplin's "Imperfect" Technique |
