The Man Who Laughs is a 1928 American silent film directed by the German Expressionist filmmaker Paul Leni. The film is an adaptation of Victor Hugo's novel of the same name and stars Mary Philbin as the blind Dea and Conrad Veidt as Gwynplaine. The film is known for the grim carnival freak-like grin on the character Gwynplaine's face, which often leads it to be classified as a horror film. Film critic Roger Ebert stated, "The Man Who Laughs is a melodrama, at times even a swashbuckler, but so steeped in Expressionist gloom that it plays like a horror film."
The Man Who Laughs is a Romantic melodrama, similar to films such as The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923). The film was one of the early Universal Pictures productions that made the transition from silent films to sound films, using the Movietone sound system introduced by William Fox. The film was completed in April 1927 but was held for release in April 1928, with sound effects and a music score that included the song, "When Love Comes Stealing," by Walter Hirsch, Lew Pollack, and Erno Rapee.

MAN WHO LAUGHS (1928) FULL FEATURE FILM THIS IS NOT FOR PROFIT and is a LABOR of LOVE and an electronic jolt to FILM CINEMA HISTORY in remembrance of a film so influential yet so old it may be forgotten or overlooked. Remember again where the eerie images of Batman's The Joker comes from! In cinema, no one has really actually captured the excruciating beauty of Conrad Veidt's heroic, un-corruptable and romantic 'JOKER' in Man Who Laughs. Set aside a night and watch this jarring and visceral Victor Hugo (Les Miserables) classic with your partner or your artsy, more rascally children: it is PG-rated-ish and a classic. DETAILS of UPCOMING FEATURE I know all sound studio friends and djs will be all, like, let me do it, I can do better! Or, hey, try this or that song, or , oh...

From the director of Romantics Anonymous comes a gloriously theatrical adaptation of Victor Hugo's classic novel, The Man Who Laughs. Gwynplaine (Marc-André Grondin) has a scar on his face, giving him a kind of permanent smile. Abandoned by the Comprachicos, who had kidnapped and slashed his face a few years earlier, he is taken in by Ursus (the indomitable Depardieu) together with a beautiful blind girl, Déa (Renoir's radiant Christa Théret). They move from village to village, performing a show whose star is the now grown-up Gwynplaine. Everywhere he goes his smile evokes laughter and emotion in the audience that adores him. Life goes on until it is discovered that this scarred man is the heir to a large and noble family. Giddy with this sudden wealth and the carnal passions of a duche...

Read your free e-book: http://copydl.space/mebk/50/en/B008VDVL5Q/book One of author Victor Hugo's most controversial and most celebrated worksloaded with intrigue and suspense! The incredible love story of the man whose face has been disfigured into a laughing mask in childhood, the loyal blind girl who gives him her heart, and the cruelty of the privileged aristocracy whose laughingstock and savior he becomes, is remarkable in its emotional impact. Hugo wrote The Man Who Laughs over a period of fifteen months while he was living in the Channel Islands, having been exiled from his native France because of the controversial political content of his previous novels. Beautifully illustrated, this classic captures the imagination of readers of all ages and inspires a love of literature and rea...
Five episodes in and Nick and Alastair are spanning mediums like a common HTML tag refusing to accept the results of his psychic reading. So we're taking in recent hit horror movie The Witch (plus Alastair's problems with recent horror and Nick's amusement at livestock), the second season of mega-podcast Serial (plus the natural excitement of murder and the dangers of doorstepping) and the BAFTA-winning video game Her Story (plus the fun of fragmented narratives and the truth about human nature). BEWARE: plot spoilers in both The Witch and Her Story sections, though we flag the major ones shortly beforehand. Lastly, Nick recommended Alastair two Punisher books by Garth Ennis last episode - Punisher: Born and Punisher: From First To Last. This fortnight, we find out whether roaming the s...

Leave that boy behind
Convict of our trades
Steal the small ones
Carved and homemade
Transform children
Flesh and living slaves
Clowns and jesters are
The ones you can not save
The man who laughs

Noble Jackals are
Banished from England
Pain of death proclaimed
King James mighty hand
Cold and hungry
Tell me what's your name
I'm not laughing cause
I am Gwynplaine
The man who laughs
The man who laughs
The man who laughs
The man who laughs
