i saw this beroe and its pretty good
its inspired by Pagliacci and lon chaney worked with clowns or something as well as did a clown in he who gets slapped based his make up on the occult italiano who started clown make up as clowns and circus's are dark in origin
after title an credits we get Italy in the spring which would be around when the Italian Stallion Benito Mussolini was in charge
1 scene has italinaoes prayi to a Cross with a statue of The Savior on it but going to see the circus coming it
a symbol of being drawn away from Holy to unholy
lon chaney oes a gag pretending to eat his finger, as THEY eat people an the crowd loves it
they give out flyers saying tito and simon the clowns will o a show tonight
after a show of vaudeville tricks lon tito like the dictator fnds a little girl in the bushes wile getting water
like sesshomaru and rin
e unties hr rom the wood in the ground and his partnet simon or w/ wants to throw her in an orphanage as women are bad luck
lon sez what the saints have sent, sinners can't refuse, so i guess they are into the black arts like clowns being base on human/fallen angel hybrids
lon oes vauevill tricks an 1 with his fingers as shadow puppets impress her
lon names her Simonetta after simon like simple simon the pie man an he likes her now
later shes trained in circus cr-p and a teen like Kagome and hey are in a big a55 circus like sailor moon season 04
the leader wants her hair one to look more womanly and gets to join the act
lon suggests a lower in her hair like Yugioh season 0
by the circus was count Luigi ravellli like raviel or Raziel rom The Bible an his area had the lower like tuxedo mask used
he sees the chic caught in the wire fence and aids her but not like hi kind got in the Reagan years
he tends to her cut legs and she sez she wanted a flower
he gets her a White one like The Moonlight Knight
a this party a blonde in black but not guys like android 18 as krillin wathes, has a drink and sees count with chick
count sez he has a new flower and brins her in his bedroom wth white and black tiles like demon worshippers have in their temples
jerry! What are you doo ing?! You're with a wo man!!
he puts her on the bed and checks her leg but blonde with a smoke comes in an sees him coming onto her saying she'd be an alluring woman
he kisses her feet as i guess he's into that an blonde tells him to send the peeasnt away
he dont an she gets b-chy so he kisses her hand after missing the poor chicks foot
man chick runs of an blone goes for count to see both are gone and now he's gotta suck his own d0ng
he breaks out laughing as min chick return home
simon sez if she's in his act, he's out as women are bad luck to him
also he sez he made lon tito what he is and lon needs him
simon storms off with lon acting very frenchish an main chick comfrts him
as tey hug, lon notices she's grown into a woman an he's interested sdespite being her parent
like woody allen or sesshomaru
this layter happened in the hatchet man with maruta
lon looks like an uglier mark Ruffalo but less beta and more frenchish
uh oh, lon has n earing on his left ear
wait, its the right ear, i looked up the beavis and butt hea ep
so e hugs her but freaks out as i guess he got a b0ner and asks her to call back simon
3 years later the count is getting checked out and fins his laughing its are rom a life of self indulgence and he let his emotions rule him so long he lost control
like cartman and his tourettes
one time, my cousin an i, touched weeeen weeeeeeen, weeenter, weenter is a cold time of yeeeeer
but dr sez falling in love with a woman will cure him
then the next patuent comes in, lon chany and count lols but is taken away
dr checks out lon and hes ticklish
lon wont tell much of himself but i think a bit was skipped and dr sez he's got hopeless love and if he gets hope and the girl he'd be ok
lon looking like devolved john wayne wis out and crys as he sez he can;t tell her as its not right
dr sez he otta laught and suggests the clown flik, which is him
i can;t help you peter parker, but spider man can
lon sez he is flik and count on th balcony with em sez lolling is his disability and its not att him
lon gets it as they cant help their things
main chic comes in with r saying be with him more
count and lon see they can help each oter to try to cure each other
they go bac and chi is nice to lon who sez his new friend always lols
he goes an girl sees count and remembers each other
they leave with her an help each other with her helping
they take a horse cart ride together
chik is in a fancy room amd mid finds a pearl necklace from count
so there's a show in a big thetre which would officially been made by horse and buggy people w/o electricity or machines
maid asks if chic would give up pearls for a clown
se sez she'd nevr leave lon
lon an i think smon come in and he trys cheering her tears off with clown cr-p including a long man thing like nose prop an big clown feet
she ez they' never pat and goes out to ballt then lon plays animals and a iant like the offspring of ma and allen anels
simon reveals he knows lon lovs girl but ins te pearls from count an implies shes b0ning him
an they stopped lolling/weeping for he same woman an oo girls dont marry tght rope walkers
can't they share her like sorcerer hunters with the sm chicks and that 1 guy?
lons p-ssed but they gotta go n again and count Luigi comes in
lon sez he's cured of lols but smiles as he tricked him with friendship
an he can fish in the gutter with pearls but not for her
count is cofused and lon think hes trying to b0ne her an smacks him
Luigi sez hes a low clown wo sees dirt
then lon crys as Luigi lols
Luigi turns over the card to say these pearls were his moms an he wants em or her to be his wife
lon reads it seen his error and sez he loves her too and is bummed
this is a love triangle like robotech
Luigi dont wanna get in lons way and they watch her on the tightrope
he sez ask her 1st so if he sez yes to Luigi, she's not now his love
then lon goes out to do clown cr-p
she comes bac and sez she ant ccept the pearls but he sez forgive me
Luigi shos lon she wants lon nd es happy for once
but then she reads the note and he sez he loves her
btw the count looks like the queer guy from degrassi
gotta be more specific
Tristin, who turned miles an got brain damage rom a bus accident
then lon goes up an does a stunt with a tightrope slide on a unicycle helmet
he comes down top see her smooching the count and e's bummed
he pulls out a gun, pus it in his mouth and says; hasta la vista
jk really simon has him go out as "you belong to them" ad he performs as simon sez "laff clown laff even though your heart is breaing"
so girl an Luigi are engaged and shes with his fam b4 the wedding
they cuddle and kiss but se wants lon to not be alone and Luigi agrees
later simon wants to do a new act but lons not feeling it
simon sez the world needs laughter an the clown about
simon sez it'll be their best season and leaves
lol looks over flyers and gorl comes in so he does the bird thing with a stuffe bird
he sees her in a fancy dress come in and she sez se couldn't stay away from him
she sees tito loves her and he wanted to ell her but couldn't
she wants to be his woman an sez se loves him
they look at a statue of The Savior and Mother an sez she loves him
she goes to tell Luigi and will go to a lake with him
he looks at the statue asking to forgive her lying cuz she loves Luigi
a guy i think simon gets his hat and coat and goes to see lon as kids watch thinking 1 is flik
los in clown ear or rehearsal as he was thinking of somethin and forgot
they practice with a mirror, possibly for occult cr-p an simon ez "y u no lol? y u no b flik?" ciuz flik isn t sad
this is pretty dddeep showing the strugglesactors go through
he sez she's gonna marry him but hes not happy and goes wild full performance imagining the crowds that aunt there musi wit a goo overlay thing of what he hears shown
he ddoes his head unicycle slide on a rope and falls off
guys move him after a all which probably kills him and say getta dr
simon holds him and sez he's 2 old 4 her
he sez its funny he missed it after years and tell luigi to be good to her
and looks nuts as the comedy ened
an then... he died... ahhhhhhhhhhhh
then kids say he's playing dead
the end
that was pretty good
not dark or gruesome, but sa and hartelt
sorta like sailor moon with doomed love and lost souls
it base on thr 1923 play Laugh, Clown, Laugh by David Belasco (one of THEM and Tom Cushing(In a dark group)
thats based on the 1919 play Ridi, Pagliaccio by Fausto Maria Martini(FAUST?!)
its got lon as a disabled guy, who has depression, but hes not evil, only sa
good actin and story an a good emotional tale
glad i rewatched it. it holds up
lon does well in these thins and his clown work is impressive
a solid performance
For Laugh, Clown, Laugh 2 I want lon to be in rehab after his accient and he alls in love with a thicc blone nurse who elps him recover. also its an 8 bit game on nes, game boy, master system, gamr hgear, t16 Atari 7800 and lynx where you play a the nurse and take care of lon like a digital pet
