So, 'Chaplin Today: A King in New York' is quite an interesting watch. It's a documentary, but it feels more like a reflective piece on Chaplin's last starring venture. The tone is a bit melancholic, capturing how he grappled with modernity and his own legacy. You get snippets of behind-the-scenes insights into the film itself, but it's really about the man and his thoughts on a changing world. The pacing is measured, allowing you to soak in the themes of alienation and nostalgia. For a collector, it’s fascinating to see how his later work contrasts with his earlier silent films. The practical effects and performances, especially Chaplin’s, are noteworthy, showcasing his timeless talent even in a more dialogue-heavy context.
