       | Just watched "The Kid" for the first time expecting a silent
       | "Three Stooges" sort of film. I was captivated by the depth of
       | Chaplin's work, and of silent films in general.
       | 
       | I'm not a connosieur of cinema, and my initial expectations for
       | silent films must have been set by those GIFs of Buster Keaton
       | regularly posted on Reddit.
       | 
       | All in all a very pleasant surprise.
