652 - Monsieur Verdoux (1947)
Manage episode 420626008 series 2779324
At the beginning of the 20th century, a deranged serial killer was convicted of seducing, marrying, robbing, and murdering over a dozen women. It is believed that he killed many, many more than that. So the lovable Tramp himself, Charlie Chaplin, decided to portray him in a movie. What’s his light-hearted take on this unexpected premise? Human society is diseased and nothing matters. In a funny way, though.
