Review of Monsieur Verdoux (1947) by Elise S — 02 Feb 2010
Monsieur Verdoux is very different from Chaplin's other pictures: it's darker, the kind of humor is also dark and Chaplin didn't appear as The Tramp.
Instead he plays a serial killer whom you can't hate, you even start to feel for him after a while. This makes this Chaplin one of those brillant, unforgettable films where he combines humor with tragedy, a combination nobody could make as beatiful as he could.
