unit2(unit2) 2 Charlie Chaplin He was born in a poor part
of the south of london. His socks were clipped from his
mother’s red stockings. His mother was once diagnosed with
mental disorder. Dickens might have created Charlie?
Chaplin’s childhood. But only Charlie? Chaplin could have
created the great comic character of the Tramp, the little man
makes his creator permanent fame shabby in dress. As far as
Chaplin is concerned, other countries, such as France, Italy,
Spain, and even Japan, have given him more applause (and more
income) than his birthplace. In 1913, Chaplin left England
permanently and started off with some of the actors in the
United States for stage comedy performances. There, he
recruited him to the king of Hollywood comedy Mike Sennett’s
work?. Unfortunately, many Britons in the two and twentieth
Century 30s thought Chaplin’s tramp was somewhat vulgar. The
middle class certainly thinks so. The working class but are more
likely to cheer for such a resistance to the powerful role: he
clapped to obstruct to wicked little cane, or boot heel
alignment pow kick. Still, Chaplin’s funny beggar looks less
like the British, not even the working class. British tramps don’t wear beards or wear baggy pants or tails: European
leaders and Italy waiters wear them. What’s more, the tramp
looks so pretty in the eyes of a pretty girl that is not
considered decent by the British audience - only foreign talent,
isn’t it? In most of Chaplin’s screen career, he was silent
on the screen, and there was no way to prove he was british.
In fact, when Chaplin could no longer resist a sound movie and
had to find the right voice for his Tramp, he did have a headache.
He tried to postpone the day as much as possible: in the modern
age of 1936, he sang and sang in the film for the first time.
In the film, he acts as a waiter, full of gibberish, and does
not sound like the language of any country. Later, he said, his
imaginary tramp was a college educated but declining gentleman.
But if he had an educated accent in the early short comedy films,
it would be hard to say whether he would be famous around the
world, and the British would surely think it was weird. No one
knew whether Chaplin was doing it on purpose, but it made him
a great success. He was a man of extraordinary talent, and his
determination was so great that it was rare even among Hollywood
stars. His great fame brought him freedom and, more importantly,
wealth, he was thus master of himself. At the beginning of his
career, he felt an urge to discover and expand his talents. When ---------------------------------------------------------------最新资料推荐------------------------------------------------------

he first saw himself on the screen as a Tramp, he said, it can’t
be me.. Is that possible? Look, what a strange character it is!
The shock awakened his imagination. Chaplin did not write his
jokes in advance. He is the comedian who creates art by acting
while feeling. Inanimate objects especially helped Chaplin
develop his artistic talents. He imagines these objects as
something else. Therefore, in the pawnbroker, a broken alarm
clock into a sick patient undergoing surgery; in the gold rush,
boots were boiled in boots, eaten with salt and pepper, like
fish (the nails being removed like fish bones). This
transformation of things, and the skills he has made again and
again, are the mysteries of Chaplin’s great comedy. He too
deeply wanted to be loved, and afraid of being betrayed. The
two are difficult to combine, and sometimes this conflict leads
to disaster, just as he did in his early marriages. Yet even
this self-knowledge, which was paid for at a price, was shown
in his comedies. The tramp never loses faith in the flower girl
that she was waiting to walk into the sunset with him; while
the other side of Chaplin makes his Mr. Verdu, a French wife
killed, has become a symbol of hatred for women. It was a
relief that life finally gave him the stability and happiness that Chaplin had not previously achieved. He found the Werner?
O’neal? Chaplin is a companion. Her poise and affection
spanned the 37 year old gap between them. Their age difference
is too large, so that when they get married in 1942 when the
bride announced the date of their wedding, ask the beautiful
17 year old girl as they go through the formalities of officials:
where is the young man? Chaplin, 54, was waiting outside
cautiously. Since Wana herself was born into a troubled family,
