A King in New York / A Woman of Paris (2 Disc Special Edition) - $4.08 at Amazon

I can't see these features getting the Blu-ray treatment anytime soon (though, I'm not really in the loop), so this seems like a good price:

Hated that little loud-mouthed kid in King of New York. I wonder how responsible Chaplin is for introducing precocious (aka obnoxious) kids into comedies.

Obnoxious kids have been around movies since the silent era. And the kid in "The Kid" wasn't annoying, so I wouldn't say Chaplin is the cause.

Currently Criterion has the rights to these 2 films, but considering they've been releasing 2 Chaplin films a year, it'll be a while until we see these 2.

At only 4.21, I wouldn't be too upset if these were announced on Blu-ray tomorrow.

For those who are Chaplin fans, that's a good deal, the Warner Chaplin's have often been selling for collector's prices as of late.

So funny... that loud mouthed kid is Chaplin's real life son.

I love A Woman in Paris. And A King in New York has some very good moments.

In for one. Wasn't sure if this was worth a blind buy at $4.21, but at $4.08 it's a no-brainer. Thanks.

As for me, I'd strongly consider it if I still had Prime shipping. Nice find by the OP.

Tempting impulse buy. The review here at DVDTalk is making me hold off however.

That's one person's opinion. If reviews are important to you, Google it and see what others have to say.
