He was known as The Man with a Thousand Faces and the player of the most famous monsters of the silent age of Hollywood, but there was far more to Lon Chaney Sr.’s life than that. This film covers the life and the extraordinary career of this seminal star of the silent screen from his childhood with deaf parents to rising to become a great cinematic legend. Defying the expectations of contemporary movie stardom, this consummate, yet intensely private, artist would define more than the horror genre with a consummate humanity under the grotesqueness of his characters. |
