Unknown Chaplin - 11/29
 

Unknown Chaplin is FINALLY making it's way to DVD on November 29th from A&E Home Video.

For decades the secrets to Charlie Chaplin's timeless film magic were presumed lost forever to the cutting-room floors of a bygone era. Using countless reels of footage and outtakes Chaplin had wanted destroyed, as well as interviews with people who knew and worked with Chaplin, film archivists Kevin Brownlow and David Gill meticulously crafted this essential and fascinating documentary homage to the Little Tramp.

Presented in three programs (My Happiest Years, Hidden Treasures and The Great Director) totaling 163 minutes, the DVD will also include "The Making of 'Unknown Chaplin,'" featurette, two rare bonus Chaplin shorts, a biography and filmography. Retail will be $24.95



I remember watching this on PBS way back when and being absolutely entranced by it! It's a great documentary/series.

Excellent news! Or, as Charlie would say:

Great news! Can't believe a treasure like this is going for less than $15!

Excellent news! A great show.

Fantastic news. Another laserdisc set retired.
