Review #330: Laugh, Clown, Laugh.

Review
Lon Chaney was one of the prime silent film stars long ago, being a lot of roles like the Hunchback to even the Phantom, giving him the name of "The Man of a Thousand Faces". And he does a a great job for his first appearance here (With his son being reviewed in #260 - The Wolf Man), managing to do a great job to convey his feeling al into his face. The rest of the cast do a decent job, conveying their feelings decently. It's a strange, yet sad film, with a circus feel that brings a bit of joy. It's a decent film that has a mostly short runtime (Lasting mostly over an hour), giving some sort of entertainment.

Overall, I give it 8 out of 10 stars
