Charlie chaplin is considered by many people to be a comedy genius. There was a program on UK tv recently presented by Paul Merton - a well known UK comedian. He showed lots of clips and the films were slowed down to show each visual joke. He said that watching his films where the quality of the actual film is bad meant that lots of these visual jokes are missed. He compared some old footage with some digitally enhanced film and it was true, you actually could not see some of the visuals in the poor quality footage.
My son loves Mr Bean, we both do but he is an absolute fan - he is 19. Again the humour is visual and well thought out, the guy who plays mr bean is an excellent actor and comedian.
