Thank God we had Chaplin and Keaton on this earth for at least a little while. Grateful we can watch their magnificent performances.
Why do you say a little while? Keaton lived for 71 years, Chaplin for 88.
And thx YT 😊
I said a little while because it wasn’t long enough for me.
@@TheJamesRedwoodIt's a little while in one way or in several ways of looking at it actually. But, please tell me if that's Charlie Chaplin at the piano. This must be in 1949.
Wow! Close up.. I see that's Charles Chaplin on the violin. Wowee
One of the finest moments in Cinematic history
Затянуто.
Magnífico!! Inolvidable!! Irrepetible!! Cuánta creatividad con pocos elementos!! DOS GENIOS!!!!!

What a genius! I
Charlie Chaplen and Buster Keaton together in a scene. Nothing more need be said.
CHARLIE CHAPLIN ON VIOLIN 🎻AND BUSTER KEATON ON PIANO 🎹ARE A GREAT COMICAL MUSICAL🎶 DUET 🤗🤭🤑😝🤪👍👍
Maybe Lucille Ball and Harpo Marx?
@@thomlarson681Just no
Two great masters of film history, with whom I have spent unforgettable moments since my youth and still decades later, I am moved, cry and laugh at the same time.
Had a dental appointment. My crazy friend sent me that I laughed so hard and long , must have healed the whole mouth. It was magic. It IS MAGIC. .Now we can laugh again. These geniuses!!! Win.
Geniales me reí un monton
I hadn't seen this before, and genuinely cried laughing! They had me straight away - shortsighted Buster with the sheet music and Charlie with the rising collar and the one tiny exasperated "peeep" on the violin!
I never knew about this performance…two legends….perfectly tuned….with each other 🎹 🎼😄😉🎼🎻
When two genuis comes together, magic happens.
So True!🔮🪄
Its only takes one actually.
Как хорошо сказано.
This fragment is boring, repeating the same thing for minutes.
@@csuporjWell, than go to Hollywood and make it better, Einstein
Modern audiences see these skits as a cliche in comedy. But that's because we have seen Chaplin and Keaton skits imitated and redone a thousand times, but forgetting these guys invented the style. We are lucky, because of the internet we are all able to see these geniuses at work.
I look at these scenes with a kind of indulgent smile and find them a little too forced (sorry), but I admit that time has passed. The tastes change over the years, just as we change with our environment and the challenges it poses to us.
This is a very classic clown routine done by absolute masters, but it was invented in the circus as were many of the early comedy routines and adapted for the early screen as they worked very well in silent movies and could be supported by live musicians in the theatres. Look at Chaplins "little Tramp" figure, all he is missing is a red nose :)
All true enough - and there was also vaudeville, which meant these routines had to work with live audiences. Both Chaplin and Keaton were part of vaudeville acts as children.
Agree with you, bobbarclay316. As a side bar, survey modern comedy - SNL, Whose Line Is It Anyway, Chris Rock standing and talking - and nothing about this seems "too forced". The pace is measured. Building. Building. Building a flow of small fillips and climaxes moving toward a finish that seems inevitable and right. This is clean, classic construction. Too sophisticated for many of the would-be sophisticates, IMO. Keaton's struggle with the stack of paper is psychologically penetrating, it's deep headspace stuff: surreal, relatable, washed with universality.
And on another note, Limelight's story line is about the waning careers of English Music Hall comics. Chaplin and Keaton are not simply leveraging their standard film schtick from the '20s. They are playing Music Hall comics whose work is vernacular, aimed at a working class audience who know the product, not academics or critics. Of course they aim for laughs here. They didn't make a documentary. But they are playing low stage comics. That's their characters. That means this is not typical best heyday Chaplin or Keaton, or what people on youtube who know little about them (yet are inclined to make sniffy critical-sounding judgments, Sorry) should judge them for.
Due mostri sacri insieme in una scena ricca di umorismo, inventiva... creatività. Non li avevo mai visti insieme. Grazie.

I prefer Keaton as a comedian, but I will gladly admit Chaplin's genius. It's a shame these two never worked together before or again. That whole scene was perfection.
Chaplin was The Star - and Keaton dismissed his humor as self-pitying.
@@SelectCircle I don't think Keaton was ever that disrespectful of Chaplin. Buster was honored to have the role in "Limelight." But i do prefer Keaton's character's stoicism and his common plot theme of one man against overwhelming odds, whether natural, human or mechanical.
@@julianhermanubis6800 Keaton's on record saying it back in the silent era. In fact it's a well-known quote because it's his definitive statement on comedy. He set out to be the opposite of Chaplin: No self-pity. In the same way the Stones set out to be the opposite of the Beatles.- but were all friends anyway.
@@SelectCircle Give me a cite to that quote you claim Keaton said about Chaplin.
@@julianhermanubis6800 Oh please. Do your own research. It's in any bio. of Keaton.
Love Keaton, he never smiles during a performance, but he can make an audience roar!
Nearly 50 years later and I am still not tired of watching these two wonderful men act. thank you so much for sharing.
I’ll get 😮here in the next hour or so if we can come over for dinner or dinner 😮be there for you and your love 💕 and then we can go get it
????? Ma non è che hai sbagliato destinatario del messaggio?
Il bellissimo film da cui è tratta questa scenaesilarante e geniale ha ben più di 50 anni!
@@lauravaccario2788 yes. I think it is more like 90 years old.
Yes I think you mean you've been watching them for 50 years. The film is 90 years old is that right?
As a piano technician…..I can totally relate to the broken strings being pulled out of the instrument…..and the sound of the snapping exactly the same!!
Strunz
Wow. So, they made sure everything was authentic?
lifting the lid of the piano on the hinge side is the best moment for me. Victor Borge probably wished he could make it his.
Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin two true masters of comedy. Not sure why this was re-uploaded since it was posted earlier today.
there was an error in the file we uploaded earlier.
@@TheChaplinFilms Ah, thank you for clearing that up.
He was not only a genius, but his athleticism was unbelievable... countless scenes where he risks his life and yet retains that stoic expression. There will never be another like him. May God bless this man.
its a waste trying to get God to bless someone who has died
No it’s not. Speak for yourself; no prayers for you.
@@chrisdann1226 Nothing more appropriate than to be blessed in life and in death. What's up with your cynicism?
i react to an overindulgence and adherence to Roman catholic thought and teaching (purgatory etc) when i come across it
I can't believe I have never seen this before until now! This was Genius from two Great Comedic Performers! I'm a Big fan of Buster Keaton's work, so this was quite a Treat! Thank you
Limelight one of Chaplin's underrated film It's kinda sad how this film tells us how even great artist will once dim their lights and people will stop laughing at u the day they'll get tired of u 😢
Agreed, but also I kinda thought of it as a reflection of how americans were reacting towards him at that time and how (maybe) he was coping with it
These two geniuses show us how it's done!
Hugely underrated picture: after the silents, it's my favorite Chaplin feature. So profound, personal yet funny.
Rest in peace Charlie Chaplin 🥺♥️
And Buster Keaton !
TheConorsmithusa I am Arab and I only know Charlie Chaplin, please excuse me
@@Amir_Jassim. Hey, you should watch Buster Keaton's movies, It's never too late ;) kzhead.info/sun/jLumZZxvrn2Bia8/bejne.html
Germain Pouillu Ok , thanks 🖤"
@@Amir_Jassim. I'm indian and Charlie Chaplin is my all time fav actor..Yes Buster keaton is also a legend, But Chaplin is an International icon
Matchless mayhem by the best. A rare treat indeed, and demonstrating the timelessness of inspired slapstick!
Two Giants. It's a shame they only did this picture together. I could only imagine what it would be like if they did a picture together in their prime. Buster will always be the greatest to me...I just look at him and laugh
Absolutely! I always loved the subtlety of Keaton! Usually quite clever, actually. His physical comedy was incredible, too!
Un vero duo comico visuale come c'è in Italia Daddy Danno e Dennysltro duo fantastico comici visuali . Da Giuseppe Tambuzzo di Milano Lombardia Italia amante della comicità visiva quella vera .
Imagine a trio with Harold Lloyd.
Боже милостивый! До чего смешно! Как я хохотала, когда Чарли ноги свои доставал!!!😅
Зате саме зараз наші ЗСУ роблять мерцями твоїх рашистських окупантів😅😮
A great scene w/ the two Immortal clowns Buster Keaton (1895-1966) Charlie Chaplin (1889-1977) They gave the world laughter
This will always be a classic which I never tire of watching.
The Same Here About CHARLIE CHAPLIN and BUSTER KEATON 😂😅
Wow! Trying to imagine what the rehearsals were like. Two absolute geniuses!
As everyone who watched this film knows, this scene ends badly. I cried a lot with her.
Phenomenal and wholesome artistic experience, even in 2023. I've heard that Chaplin hurt his back when he fell in the drum.
Que dos grandes genios , Buster Keaton y Charles Chaplin , junto a Harold Lloid mis tres humoristas de cine mudo favoritos.
Two Bosses of comedy !! Solute !!
Such a joy to watch the Masters at work. Leg. Paper. They sure knew how to milk a bit or a prop. RIP, gentle men, and thanx so very much for the magic, music, and memories.
i love those two legends
Chaplin e Keaton. Nunca mais veremos nada igual.
É óbvio! 😅😅😅 "Gênio" você também, kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Chaplin really did play violin, left-handed! He even played with Albert Einstein. Chaplin composed all the music for his films.
Immortale Chaplin, sempre un arcobaleno di sorrisi e pensieri. Grazie per il video.
Keaton was great but Chaplin is a true artist, unique unmatched genius on every level. acting, directing, composing, producing, dancing, singing, playing instruments! there was no thing he couldn't do!
Chaplin couldn't do half of the stunts Keaton did lmao, put some respect on Keaton's name
Lol that 'was great but' 😂. Both of them are great in their own way.
Eddie, you should edit this comment after truly immersing yourself in Keaton’s work. 😄
Keaton was a true artist, too. How was he not?
Keaton is the 🐐 in my opinion. He did it all as well! I guess it's preference but you can't go wrong with either. Keaton's stuff do it for me. Legendary stuff.
Rivales en su tiempo, pero siempre amigos. Los mejores del cine mudo.
ALASBUENAS el yo lo pasa mmmmuuuyyyy BIEN y APASALOBIEN TØS Y TÃS
What a hilariously brilliant scene. The only thing that would have made this better is if Harold Lloyd had a cameo. XD
A Comedy and yet a Tragedy. Chaplin was a genius. Wrote, directed, acted, composed music, and directed the orchestra. Unequaled, an idol of mine.
Pure genius.
I picture very clearly how the folk in cinemas couldn't catch their breath laughing at every single thing of this collab. They had a wonderful time.
Keaton~♡♡♡
I can’t I’m currently at tears right now. This is probably the best scene ever😂😂😂😂
So True 😂😅😂😅
This is seriously HILARIOUS!!! 🤣😂
Magnificent. Two geniuses of comedy.
So cool to see them together.
Buster and Charlie are the best clowns in the world, who also know their music.
"Chaplin wasn't the funniest, I wasn't the funniest, Stan Laurel was the funniest"
Two kings of comedy unexpectedly brought me back to the silent era, and I couldn't be happier. They will make the audience happy forever.
Oh yeah, agreed 100%!
Chaos is unnerving and hilarious. Two masters.
Nunca me dejará de fascinar el hecho de que, después de esta escena tan cómica en la que literalmente puedes llegar a llorar de la risa, terminas llorando pero de tristeza, esta película es una autentica genialidad.
Vero
Two huge comic personalities together, what a masterpiece. They make me laugh and admire them in the same time. The research of details is wonderful, like the notes that Charlie plays that seem true, the cushion at the edge of the stage when he falls outside… Keaton and Chaplin two unrivaled talents. And the quality of the film is perfect. This comic skit was reproposed in Italy by the comic duo Franco e Ciccio and Lino Banfi.
Funny, hilarious, yet very sophisticated. What a sumptuous performance by the two greatest comedians!
Era o final do filme... era criança ainda, mas a cena me impressionou e ficou inesquecível...
I am 53 yrs old and I deep love of the old silent films from 1896 to 1929. Great films, great movie stars, movies at it's infancy. Where comedies were comedy.
Two comedic, GOAT geniuses here folks! Love these guys dearly!
Simply brilliant! Cheers gentlemen! 😂
My favourite artist,
i"m so happy Chaplin and Keaton lived long enough to perform together. As expected, the skit was performed without dialog. . It would have been perfect if the 3 Stooges had carried off Chaplin stuck in the drum at the end!
I could never ever get sick of this! I LOVE THIS
🎼🎵🎶🎹🎻❤❤😂😅😊😮
""I never really learned to play the violin well, but I loved to play it. It was a way for me to express myself and to connect with my emotions. I also enjoyed the challenge of trying to master a difficult instrument." ~ CC
Los amo❤❤ a los dos😂😂😂😂 excelente, sobre todo en estos momentos
Thank you for preserving and sharing this wonderful scene. Only Charlie makes me genuinely laugh forgetting pain and uncertainties of life even for a moment. Magical, brilliantly creative, natural masterpiece🎉
Cette scène est mythique ! C'est l'une des plus drôle que j'ai jamais vue jusqu'à présent !!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Un grand merci à ces 2 très grands artistes !!! 💖💖💖💖🌞🌞🌞🌞
Una scena esilarante, di una bravura straordinaria, in uno dei film più belli, toccanti, profondi, pieni di sentimenti e valori profondi di tutti i tempi
А что это за фильм ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Pure magic, the two great comic geniuses together, love it.
Very interesting collaboration. I couldn't believe that was Buster Keaton.
Magnifique, un moment parfait de deux maitres du cinema❤
Old Charlie and Buster theme was the good ole days LOL...
Kudos to the audience, they are very patient
The two top of the history! ❤❤❤❤❤
Chaplin recognized Buster as a genius
Pure genius!!! 😁

This is the " magic" that happens on the stage. No, no one can explain it. 🎉🎉🎉
remember watching Chaplins masterpiece Limelight thanks for this short clip
Ah...a timeless funny with two masters of vaudeville humor. No greenscreen, no special effects 😊😅😂...❤❤❤❤
E todas as músicas dos filmes de Chaplin eram composições próprias!!!!!!
Merci les artistes de nous amener cette prémonition de la folle déconstruction, du chaos culturel, des pattes devenues folles, du piétinement du Stradivarius, de l'avalanche incontrôlable de la partition et du méli-mélo-drame de la pelote de cordes dont il faut se défaire comme on libère les baleines des filets errants... pour finalement retrouver la Musique expressive, émouvante, héritée, juste. Comme toujours avec eux, aller au delà du rire.
charlie chaplin and buster keaton in the same show,wow my favorites🤣😂🤣😂😇🥰🤩thank you this is hilarious
Two masters - sharing the limelight - sublime.
Ці артисти-професіонали просто неперевершені.Підмітити такі музикантські тонкощі(як налаштування інструменту перед грою).Я сама музикант,я так в житті не сміялась.Браво!
Such a great film!!
Masters of there time & beyond there time...‼️
This episode was unknown to me. I could split my sides laughing.
Grandes maestros. Fueron los que iniciaron todo.
Me suis régalée avec ces 2 montres de la comédie. Merciiiii
Maestros!!! ❤❤
Charlie Chaplin ❤🔥
Pure.magic!!! AMAZING!!! Brilliant!!!! 🏆
When people talk about "comic genius"; this is what it looks like 😂😂😂.
Deux GÉNIES !!!!!❤❤❤👏👏👏
True, Real Comedy from Real Comedians from the past. I had to pause the video to compose myself due to laughing si much. It made my day. May they R.I.P.
Comedy perfection
The pioneers ! ❤
Wonderful. I thought I had seen all CC work. Not this one. Thank you for uploading it
Выше всяких похвал! И артист и музыкант от Бога!
Скажите Вы про кого из двоих комиков написали Ваш комментарий?
@@user-bi4tx9kz6hя думаю он писал о Чаплине
Absolutely marvelous!
They are great, both of them ☺️😉
I always must cry, when an Instrument is destroyed by "fun"...
Ainda não vi nenhum artista igual a esse 👏👏👏👏
Es lo que tiene la Genialidad. No necesita palabras y trasciende al tiempo. Chaplin y Keaton... Keaton y Chaplin... Irrepetibles!!! 💖💖💖✨
Capolavoro !!! 🤩🤩🤩
