He was such an impeccable actor; so physical, so emotional, absolutely relentless on our emotions. No finer actor than Lon Chaney.

After having watches "The Penalty", I am quite glad to see that Lon Chaney retrieved his legs, although the crutches stay as his companions... 😁

What a cute ending - first Jehovah showed his wrath and saved the woman, then he made Lon Chaney walk again.

Interestingly enough, William D. Pelley, who wrote the story, later went on to form the Silver Legion of America.

I love how they make Fallbrook sound so otherworldly Lol.

Based on the Dvd covers this movie was nothing like I expected but still amazing and I agree instant favorite ending. Some really quality silent acting here from people (outside of Chaney) I am unfamiliar with.

This music choice really doesn't fit the mood of the story most of the time.

Mr Chaney was cursed with a somewhat cruel face, which perhaps limited the roles he was offered when his fame grew. By all accounts he was the kindest and gentlest of men.

+Tony Curr In the film "Tell it to The Marines," he plays a sympathetic character, and was so appreciated by the USMC, they made him an honorary marine. And, just like many of his movies, the suffered from unrequited love in it.

@michaeldanello3966 7 лет назад

Tony Curr Where you see a cruel face, many see a man who has lived a life that would have destroyed most men and an extremely expressive face capable of an extraordinary range of emotions.

@user-yp2mw2ko9k 7 месяцев назад

I only see a real man`s face in comparision to these infantilized, effeminated boys we have today.

@praguephotog 11 лет назад

It was called "The Man Who Laughs", with Conrad Veidt in the title role.

@sparkysmom7149 9 месяцев назад

Excellent movie. I suggest muting the volume to focus on the film rather than the terrible circus/trapeze artist music

good way to end a movie,earthquake

@DayDreamBeliever1961 12 лет назад

I think Lon Chaney did the make up for a film Called "The man who couldn't stop smiling" about a man whose face was frozen into a grin. But I havn't been able to find any information on it.

@michaeldanello3966 7 лет назад

DayDreamBeliever1961 The film's correct title is The Man Who Laughs based on Victor Hugo's novel of the same name. It is based on real life history and stars Conrad Veidt of Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (silent 1928) and who later played the Nazi that Rick (Bogart) shoots at the end of Casablanca. ALL of his films are worth watching and if you're a history buff be sure to read the background of Man/Laughs...fascinating and disturbing piece of British history not widely known in USA.

@michaeldanello3966 7 лет назад

Mike Carr See my lengthy response to DayDreamBeliever1961. The correct title is the same as the source novel by Victor Hugo: The Man Who LAUGHS.

i saw the film & it was a gypsy spell..or something that made a small boys face become that hideous grin...Which by the way was the inspirationfor the character of the joker

@finncullen 2 года назад

@@KatyaReminiec9399 It wasn't a gypsy spell -it was a mutilation by knives inflicted on children so they could be used as beggars or displayed in travelling shows - the novel goes into more detail
