This budget DVD collection follows the suit of other big box Chaplin collections: put as many films onto as many discs as possible, regardless of print quality and sell them as cheap as possible. With so many quality versions of the later Chaplin films available, the chief attraction of this collection will be . . . well, I don’t know . . . to get as much as you can for as little as possible?

Don’t consider buying this collection for the early Chaplin films. The Keystone, Essanay and Mutual films have all been released on DVD home video in far superior editions transferred from 35mm prints.
