Charlie Chaplin meets Loren Connors

July 10, 2014

If you have not seen Loren Connors' adaption of "City Lights," it's about time to change that. "The sole purpose of this use of the images is to illustrate the timelessness of the more serious scenes of the film in the context of modern music and to indicate how the film would "feel" with the "slapstick" elements (roughly three-fourths of the film eliminated, which transforms the material and uses it for a different purpose than the original intent and comedic value)." - LC
