Generation Pop Gap: Movies for my 13-year-old daughter
The first in our series of movies that I'm watching with my 13 year old daughter is Charlie Chaplin's 1931 silent classic City Lights. In this video review, Maggie and I discuss the value in today's kids watching older movies, some of the ideas explored in the movie about class how people view one another, and we add City Lights to her Flickchart.
