Limelight (Criterion Collection) [New Blu-ray]

Description: Limelight (Criterion Collection) [New Blu-ray] Title: Limelight (Criterion Collection) Format: Blu-ray Label: Criterion Collection Genre: Drama UPC: 715515146210 Release Date: 2015 Charlie Chaplin's masterful drama about the twilight of a former vaudeville star is among the writer-director's most touching films. Chaplin plays Calvero, a once beloved musical-comedy performer, now a washed-up alcoholic who lives in a small London flat. A glimmer of hope arrives when he meets a beautiful but melancholy ballerina (Richard III's Claire Bloom) who lives downstairs. An elegant mix of the comic and the tragic, this poignant film also features Buster Keaton (The General) in an extended cameo, marking the only time the two silent comedy icons appeared together on-screen. Made at a time when Chaplin was under attack by the American press and far right, Limelight was barely distributed in the United States upon it's initial release, but it is now considered one of his essential and most personal works.Copyright DirectToU LLC.
