One thousand faces. Six classic films. HE WHO GETS SLAPPED (1924) Lon Chaney alongside Norma Shearer and John Gilbert. MOCKERY (1927) In a striking performance, Chaney proves his talents were not confined to prosthetics and makeup. THE MONSTER (1925) Lon Chaney plays the monstrous Ziska, who gathers candidates for his eerie experiments by causing roadway accidents. MR. WU (1927) Lon Chaney essays dual characters as the sage Grandfather Wu and his grandson, the mandarin Mr. Wu. THE UNHOLY THREE (1925) Chaney plays a ventriloquist who teams with a strongman and a dwarf to embark on a life of crime.
