People Magazine Silent Film Comedy

Found this on alt.movies.silent: <In the current issue of People, there is a review of a book called 'The 50 Funniest Movies of All Time.' It includes the sentence, 'It's hard to find fault with her first choice, 'Some Like It Hot.' But the rest of her canon dutifully includes films nobody

watches anymore ('City Lights,' 'The General'... I think we should let People magazine know that some people watch 'City Lights' and 'The General.' If you agree, send a note to People magazine.

Their snail-mail address is:

People Time & Life Building Rockefeller Center New York, N.Y. 10020

Include your name, address and daytime telephone number.

Let them know how you feel.

Leslie (who can't help but think that Leonard Maltin was right...)

Hmm. Maybe they should rechristen their periodical 'Dumb People' magazine.

Can you imagine someone putting out a book called 'The 50 Funniest Moves of All Time' and NOT including something from Chaplin and Keaton?
