Lon Chaney -- The Year's Big Picture -- February 16, 2025

Selma Times-Journal, 26-February-1925

I have not written about Lon Chaney often enough. Swedish director Victor Sjöström (billed as Victor Seastrom) directed Chaney, Norma Shearer, John Gilbert and Tully Marshall in He Who Gets Slapped, based on a play by Leonid Andreyev. Chaney gave a remarkable performance as a man who acted out his humiliation every day as a clown. This was M-G-M's first production.
