    There is so much to say about him, yet at the same time it's difficult. I could go on for hours about why I love him, but I'll simply say that he was amazing in everything he did. It sums it up quite nicely.

    His work serves as a blueprint for not only progress in modern film-making but progress in modern society as well. Over 70 years on his ideas have proven to stand the test of time. His films are based on simplistic philosophies that get confused and screwed around in an overly complex world. To watch The Kid we know what it feels like to be a parent and guardian. To watch Limelight we know that it's possible to redeem our worth to not only others but ourselves. To watch Modern Times we know that our pursuit of infinite technology has and will continue to make us cynical and jaded robots.

    The Tramp was more than a bowler and dancing cane. He is all of us as he meanders his way through life impacting strangers in extraordinary ways. Of all the artists to be celebrated in the 20th century, Chaplin will undoubtedly go down in history as a genious, a romantic, a poet and most importantly a clown because Charlie Chaplin was and is a prophet of laughter.

    I've never heard anyone say a bad word about this man. Who can? His tireless work ethic made him top of his game. Any actor out there must admit that some part of what they do is inspired by Charlie. He was truly tuned in to what the audience of the day wanted (and needed) to see. But his work remains timeless to this day. He is truly the silent voice and image of a generation.

    This guys movies, or at leats most that I have seen, were definately was the best out there (but I'm of course talking about his silents and his comedy). In a matter of fact, I do think Modern Times is the funniest movie I ever seen.

    Which film do you think is his best? I'm for The Great Dictator, hands down. Anyone to oppose me?
