The Lion cage.The Lion cage is a olden day movie. It is about a men name Charlie
Chaplin who got chase from a donkey .This movie is a silent films so that means you
can not hear them talk you can only hear music.I don’t like Silent films because you
don’t know what they are saying and you don’t understand anything it would be better
to hear them so other people could understand the movie.

Hey again Tehillah, thanks for sharing your thoughts on The Lion Cage. It seems so old now when you watch the trailer. I don't think I would like to watch a silent film either. It wouldn't be very entertaining and I'm not sure it would hold my interest. I think I need conversations in films to keep me engaged.
ReplyDeleteDo you watch a lot of movies? What's your favourite?
Thanks, Billy
