Ep 025 // City Lights

Published: May 17, 2021, noon

Way too many silent movie jokes were made in the making of this episode. That's right, Jacob has picked a silent movie. At the time of the recording of this episode, Jacob had just started his watch through of AFI's 100 Years 100 Movies list and he saved this Charlie Chaplin movie just for Tate and our anonymous third co-host. The pick is 1931's City Lights.

This movie was directed by Charlie Chaplin.
