This week we watch Modern Times, Chaplin's last film of the silent era and one of the reasons why later in life he was accused of soviet sentimentality and blackballed from Hollywood. After watching it, eh, I can kinda see why.
Welcome to Film Buffing up, the world's latest AFI watchcast where two casual film-goers, Jen and Mike, sit down and go through all of the American Film Institutes' 100 Films for 100 years and see where they stack in a new century. Every week we watch a new film in ascending order, discuss them and ultimately rank them on our own personal lists. Where will your favorites be placed? Listen and find out!
