Title: Win 1/2 Copies -Charlie Chaplins Keystone Collection DVD/Ans Q/Email/ACT Post by: oldfellow on Thursday 06 December 2012, 05:19:32 am http://www.bmamag.com/articles/free-stuff/20121204-two-copies-charlie-chaplins-keystone-co/
TWO COPIES OF ‘CHARLIE CHAPLIN’S KEYSTONE COLLECTION’ (DVD) (http://static.bmamag.com/photologue/photos/cache/GIVEAWAY-Charlie-Chaplin-Collection_article_size_4.jpg) On December 5, just in time for the silly season, Transmission Home Entertainment will be releasing Charlie Chaplin's Keystone Collection. A four-disc DVD set of 35 of this marvellous actor/director's films, lovingly restored to be enjoyed by all – fans, film buffs, families and those yet to discover his work. Charles Chaplin came to Mack Sennett’s Keystone Studios late in 1913 as a little-known British vaudevillian and, after a year, had established his Tramp character, learnt to write and direct his own films and achieved public recognition as a star comedian. Although Keystone did not publicise its performers by name, standees of Chaplin’s likeness outside theatres sufficed to attract audiences. Some of the films, especially Tillie’s Punctured Romance, remained in theatrical distribution for decades. The Keystone Collection presents 35 of Chaplin’s films made during his time at the Keystone Studios, painstakingly restored from early-generation materials gathered from around the world. One can now understand his meteoric rise; for the first time in generations it is possible to see clearly the clever and imaginative films this enigmatic actor/director made at Keystone. If you’d like a copy, email allan@bmamag.com and tell him which of Chaplin’s films you think was the best and why. Make a damned compelling case or stay home. This is serious. Email the editor with your name, phone number and address to see if you can pick up yourself a one of these. http://www.amazon.com/Chaplin-At-Keystone-International-Collaboration/dp/B003YBNNMY Chaplin At Keystone: An International Collaboration of 34 Original Films Charles Chaplin (Actor), Mabel Normand (Actor), Charles Chaplin (Director), Mabel Normand (Director) | Rated: G | Format: DVD 4.7 out of 5 stars See all reviews (17 customer reviews) | Like (37) List Price: $79.95 Price: $71.96 & this item ships for FREE with Super Saver Shipping.
