Firstly, I'm sorry I haven't been on FWFR a lot in the past year. I'll try to get back in the habit this year.
Secondly, I have posters of the following four movies on my wall at my office: Metropolis (1927) The Tingler (1959) Star Wars (1977) Curious George (2006)
A coworker asked me what do all four of the above films have in common. I'm trying to think of a good answer for him, but frankly, I'm stumped. Does anyone want to take a crack at it?
This might be tenuous, but here's the best I could come up with:
They all include major characters who don't speak and rely on non-verbal sounds or body language: Metropolis - everyone because it is a silent movie Tingler - the deaf and mute wife of the theater owner Star Wars - R2D2 Curious George - George
