Chaplin vs. Keaton

Recommended Posts

Come on let's pit these two comedic masters of silent film against each other. Modern Times vs. The General, perhaps?

Agreed. I think Chaplin has a greater overall body of work but the Genersl is still better than any single Chaplin movie.

I've said this on this forum before, but you can tell that George Miller was looking at The General when making Mad Max: Fury Road. This just happens to be a lot funnier, and with trains. THAT SAID, if we're talking about Keaton, Sherlock, Jr. is my poison. Such an incredible final sequence.

Harrold Lloyd, yo. Always overlooked and out-grossed Keaten and Chaplin combined. If you've never seen it, "Speedy" is my Favorite.
