Product Information

Before the creation of United Artists, Chaplin married for the first time. The 16-year-old actress Mildred Harris had revealed that she was pregnant with his child, and in September 1918, he married her quietly in Los Angeles to avoid controversy. [135] Soon after, the pregnancy was found to be false. [136] Chaplin was unhappy with the union and, feeling that marriage stunted his creativity, struggled over the production of his film Sunnyside. [137] Harris was by then legitimately pregnant, and on 7 July 1919, gave birth to a son. Norman Spencer Chaplin was born malformed and died three days later. [138] The marriage ended in April 1920, with Chaplin explaining in his autobiography that they were "irreconcilably mismated". [139] In 1992, the Sight & Sound Critics' Top Ten Poll ranked Chaplin at No. 5 in its list of "Top 10 Directors" of all time. [467] In the 21st century, several of Chaplin's films are still regarded as classics and among the greatest ever made.

Chaplin spent five months on his next film, the two-reeler The Idle Class. [133] Work on the picture was for a time delayed by more turmoil in his personal life. First National had on 12 April announced Chaplin's engagement to the actress May Collins, whom he had hired to be his secretary at the studio. By early June, however, Chaplin "suddenly decided he could scarcely stand to be in the same room" as Collins, but instead of breaking off the engagement directly, he "stopped coming in to work, sending word that he was suffering from a bad case of influenza, which May knew to be a lie."

Stan Laurel, Chaplin's co-performer at the company, remembered that Karno's sketches regularly inserted "a bit of sentiment right in the middle of a funny music hall turn". [367] Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin KBE (16 April 1889–25 December 1977) was an English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer who rose to fame in the era of silent film. He became a worldwide icon through his screen persona, the Tramp, and is considered one of the film industry's most important figures. His career spanned more than 75 years, from childhood in the Victorian era until a year before his death in 1977, and encompassed both adulation and controversy. Robinson speculates that Switzerland was probably chosen because it "was likely to be the most advantageous from a financial point of view". [314] When filming began at the end of 1928, Chaplin had been working on the story for almost a year. [194] City Lights followed the Tramp's love for a blind flower girl (played by Virginia Cherrill) and his efforts to raise money for her sight-saving operation. It was a challenging production that lasted 21 months, [195] with Chaplin later confessing that he "had worked himself into a neurotic state of wanting perfection". [196] One advantage Chaplin found in sound technology was the opportunity to record a musical score for the film, which he composed himself. [196] [197]

Chaplin never spoke more than cursorily about his filmmaking methods, claiming such a thing would be tantamount to a magician spoiling his own illusion. [371] Little was known about his working process throughout his lifetime, [372] but research from film historians–particularly the findings of Kevin Brownlow and David Gill that were presented in the three-part documentary Unknown Chaplin (1983)–has since revealed his unique working method. [373] Producing films in this manner meant Chaplin took longer to complete his pictures than almost any other filmmaker at the time. [379] If he was out of ideas, he often took a break from the shoot, which could last for days, while keeping the studio ready for when inspiration returned. [380] Delaying the process further was Chaplin's rigorous perfectionism. [381] According to his friend Ivor Montagu, "nothing but perfection would be right" for the filmmaker. [382] Because he personally funded his films, Chaplin was at liberty to strive for this goal and shoot as many takes as he wished. [383] The number was often excessive, for instance 53 takes for every finished take in The Kid (1921). [384] For The Immigrant (1917), a 20-minute short, Chaplin shot 40,000 feet of film–enough for a feature-length.

He remained convinced that sound would not work in his films, but was also "obsessed by a depressing fear of being old-fashioned". [205] In this state of uncertainty, early in 1931, the comedian decided to take a holiday and ended up travelling for 16 months. [206] [w] He spent months travelling Western Europe, including extended stays in France and Switzerland, and spontaneously decided to visit Japan. [208] The day after he arrived in Japan, Prime Minister Inukai Tsuyoshi was assassinated by ultra-nationalists in the May 15 Incident. The group's original plan had been to provoke a war with the United States by assassinating Chaplin at a welcome reception organised by the prime minister, but the plan had been foiled due to delayed public announcement of the event's date.

saw City Lights rank among the critics' top 50, Modern Times inside the top 100, and The Great Dictator and The Gold Rush placed in the top 250. [468] The top 100 films as voted on by directors included Modern Times at number 22, City Lights at number 30, and The Gold Rush at number 91. [469] Every one of Chaplin's features received a vote. [470] Chaplin was ranked at No. 35 on Empire magazine's "Top 40 Greatest Directors of All-Time" list in 2005. [471] In 2007, the American Film Institute named City Lights the 11th greatest American film of all time, while The Gold Rush and Modern Times again ranked in the top 100. [472] Books about Chaplin continue to be published regularly, and he is a popular subject for media scholars and film archivists. [473] Many of Chaplin's film have had a DVD and Blu-ray release.

In 1998, the film critic Andrew Sarris called Chaplin "arguably the single most important artist produced by the cinema, certainly its most extraordinary performer and probably still its most universal icon". [438] He is described by the British Film Institute as "a towering figure in world culture", [439] and was included in Time magazine's list of the " 100 Most Important People of the 20th Century" for the "laughter [he brought] to millions" and because he "more or less invented global recognizability and helped turn an industry into an art". [440] In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Chaplin as the 10th greatest male star of Classic Hollywood Cinema. [441] A woman is never fully dressed without wearing a good perfume. The amount of time she takes to decide on the fragrance she will wear is as important as the time she takes to get completely dressed up. You can predict what a lady is feeling by the fragrance she wears. And “Charlie” seems to have discovered this secret. Despite asking for an Anglican funeral, Chaplin appeared to be agnostic. In his autobiography he wrote, "I am not religious in the dogmatic sense ... I neither believe nor disbelieve in anything ... My faith is in the unknown, in all that we do not understand by reason; I believe that ... in the realm of the unknown there is an infinite power for good."
