CITY LIGHTS (1931). Charles Chaplin film that for some sound effects and score is silent. The Little Tramp falls in love with a Blind Flower Girl (Virginia Cherrill, the first Mrs Cary Grant) and tries to raise money for an operation that will restore her sight. He worries though, that she will see him as He really is and not the Man of Means she thinks he is.
Well made film that has some truly humorous scenes (particularly the Boxing match). but some truly slow spots. Still worth seeing and truly one of the BEST, most Heartwarming finale of any film. ***
