Description

Welcome back to Lupo’s Cinema Symposium 🍿 For this special “Staff Picks” edition, Christian finally brought one of his all-time favorites to the table: City Lights by Charlie Chaplin. We break down why this silent-era classic still hits emotionally nearly 100 years later, Chaplin’s legendary performance, the film’s comedy and heartbreak, and whether modern audiences can still connect with it today. Is City Lights one of the greatest movies ever made… or are we just getting emotional over a guy with a tiny mustache and a cane? Grab some popcorn and join the symposium.

We also break down Patton Oswalt’s surprisingly great dramatic performance and why Big Fan has become such a cult favorite over the years.Is this one of the most underrated sports movies ever made? Or is it just two hours of pure secondhand embarrassment?Tune in as we spiral into obsession, sports radio calls, and one man’s extremely unhealthy relationship with the New York Giants. https://linktr.ee/uptownlupo420 [https://linktr.ee/uptownlupo420]
