6/10
Pretty simple, but still inspired

"Character Studies" is an American movie from 1927 that is from the later days of silent film and also still in black-and-white of course. The star here is Carter DeHaven, who at the same time is probably also the least known cast member as he pulls off a magic show in which he transforms into some of the biggest names from back then. And they really needed these names to make it work. With the exception of Chaplin, you will find all the Tier I names from the silent era and it's a nice deal of trick photography that makes even a transformation into probably the world's most known child actor look credible. It is a nice little presentation and I enjoyed it. You can also appreciate it if silent films are not among your very favorite genre because I did so myself. Also good to keep it this short at comfortably under 10 minutes as it might have gotten repetitive otherwise. Definitely a success, go check it out.
