Top 100 Comedy

The Chaplin Collection 2 contains "The Circus," "City Lights," "The Kid," "Monsieur Verdoux," "A Woman Of Paris/A King In New York," "The Chaplin Revue," and "Charlie: The Life And Art Of Charlie Chaplin." "The Circus" The Little Tramp accidentally becomes a big-top star in the comedy that earned Chaplin a special Academy Award. "City Lights" - A forever classic - and an American Film Institute Top-100 Movie. The Tramp becomes a working man, saving money for an operation that will restore a blind flower girl's sight. "The Kid" - The Tramp and his ragamuffin sidekick (6-year-old Jackie Coogan) triumph over life's hard knocks in the landmark film that changed the notion of what a screen comedy could be. "A King In New York/A Woman Of Paris" - Chaplin jabs at social conventions! U.S. pop culture is the target of his satiric "A King In New York." And the whirl of French high society frames director Chaplin's tragic love story "A Woman Of Paris." "Monsieur Verdoux" Killer comedy! Chaplin turns his sunny nature inside out to play a roving gent who wins the love and bank accounts of spinsters, then murders the hapless biddies.

Collection includes "Bringing Up Baby," "Dinner At Eight," "Libeled Lady," "The Philadelphia Story," "Stage Door" and "To Be Or Not To Be." "Bringing Up Baby" - All the earnest paleontologist (Cary Grant) wants is an intercostal clavicle to complete his brontosaurus skeleton. What he gets is an out-of-control toboggan ride with a scatterbrained heiress (Katharine Hepburn) nuts about him (or maybe just nuts). Riding along are a dog named George, a leopard named Baby, a snooty society matron with a spare million, a caretaker on the sauce and more. "Dinner At Eight" - A vastly entertaining behind-closed-doors glimpse into the lives of the troubled and troublemaking Who's Who of people invited to a posh Manhattan party, is served with ample helpings of humor and melodrama. "Libeled Lady" - Bill Chandler (William Powell) is one of America's great anglers, a sports fisherman without peer, doom in waders to the wiliest trout. And that isn't the only fish story Chandler tells. Four of Hollywood's greatest stars - Powell, Jean Harlow, Myrna Loy and Spencer Tracy reel in this whopper of a screwball romantic comedy classic nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. "The Philadelphia Story" - Sophisticated romantic comedy achieved its pinnacle in this timeless classic voted one of the Top 100 American Films of all time by the American Film Institute. Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant and Best Actor Academy Award winner James Stewart star in the masterful comedy (directed by George Cukor) about a fault finding, bride-to-be socialite who gets her comeuppance. (Writer Donald Ogden Stewart won the film's second Oscar for adapting Philip Barry's play.) "Stage Door" - Ginger Rogers and Ann Miller tap in time and rat-a-tat lines. Lucille Ball braves a date with an obnoxious lumber baron. Eve Arden can't recall Hamlet but one meets so many people in the big city. And Katharine Hepburn becomes Broadway's biggest star in a play wherein she notes "the calla lilies are in bloom again.
