| Randy Rainbow says that about his apt. I SWEAR it's a quote or at least a paraphrase, but I can't place it or google it. Anyone? | |

| sure, but I'm hearing, or more seeing, a film in my mind, but not placing it. It might even be a silent film... I can JUST almost place it. I'm thinking silent because I'm seeing old fashioned images in my head - like jerky action because of film speed.. It'll come to me | |

| That might be on one of the inter-titles in "Modern Times" because until Chaplin sings his song of nonsensical words later in the film, it's silent film (except for the background music and sound effects). I think that's the first time he was ever heard on screen, having resisted talking pictures until this. | |
