If you loved Cry Freedom, try Chaplin

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Richard Attenborough, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Cry Freedom, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Chaplin is

A cluttered London office, late autumn, a vintage typewriter. A frail Charlie Chaplin recounts his rags-to-riches story, from impoverished music halls to Hollywood's spotlight. Attenborough tenderly frames Chaplin's life.
