    City Lights (1931)

    "Little Prince" author Saint-Exupéry said: "One sees well only with the heart. The essential is invisible to the eyes." I guess Chaplin's view would slightly differ as for the cinematic genius, one would see well only with the eyes AND the heart. The essential is inaudible to the ears. And only a silent movie could have kept such a universal and timeless appeal as the film speaks humanity's universal language through laughs, cheers and tears and the depiction of the most beautiful and valuable human virtues: kindness.
