Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin (April 16, 1889 – December 25, 1977) was an English comedian, actor, film director and composer. Chaplin became one of the best known film stars in the world before the end of the first world war and continued to utilise mime, slapstick and other visual conventions of the silent cinema well into the era of the talkies, though his films decreased in frequency from the end of the 1920s. With Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and D. W. Griffith, Chaplin co-founded United Artists in 1919.
Chaplin acted in, directed, scripted, produced and eventually scored his own films as one of the most creative and influential personalities of the silent-film era. His working life in entertainment spanned over 75 years, from the Victorian stage and the Music Hall in the United Kingdom as a child performer almost until his death at the age of 88. His high-profile public and private life encompassed both adulation and controversy. Chaplin's identification with the left ultimately forced him to resettle in Europe during the 'Red scare' period in the early 1950s. Find Charlie Chaplin articles, videos, and pictures here.
