Relation to the Velvet Underground song


May be a stupid question, but is there any relation between this movie and the Velvet Underground song of the same name?

reply

i think the song was written at the same time the movie was about so lou probaby just cribbed the title. i've never seen any other reference to the film in the velvets literature.

Lou Reed is a Chaplin fan: cf his song City Lights on The Bells album.
