Sinopsis

Richard CarrâÇÖs Charlie Chaplin places politics at the centre of the filmmakerâÇÖs life as it looks beyond ChaplinâÇÖs role as a comedic figure to his constant political engagement both on and off the screen. Drawing from a wealth of archival sources from across the globe, Carr provides an in-depth examination of ChaplinâÇÖs life as he made his way from Lambeth to Los Angeles. From his experiences in the workhouse to his controversial romantic relationships and his connections with some of the leading political figures of his day, this book sheds new light on ChaplinâÇÖs private life and introduces him as a key social commentator of the time. Whether interested in Hollywood and Hitler or communism and celebrity, Charlie Chaplin is essential reading for all students of twentieth-century history.á
