Celebrity is a mask that eats into the face. Said John Updike. I love that quote.
The Two Charlies : their decline and fall
There are remarkable parallels between Charles Dickens and Charlie Chaplin -
the workhouse/desperate London poverty childhoods,
the early success leading to the ever more gigantic successes,
the world-bestriding fame,
the popular genres becoming ever more elaborated (from Pickwick to Dombey, from Kid Auto Races to Modern Times),
the leftish political slant and the zeal for social improvement,
the appeal to the groundlings and the intellectuals,
the great gouts of sentiment amongst the caricature comedy,
and
also
the great crash of their popularity in the last 50 years.
Well, I think the same thing has happened to both of them 鈥� correct me if I'm wrong. Since the 50s at least, Chaplin's movies appear to be rated by critics a poor third to Buster Keaton's and Harold Lloyd's. And I think you'd have to look a long time with a strong flashlight in your local multiplex before you found a Chaplin fan. His stuff is too encrusted with the inexplicable past. It has too much surface noise.
Dickens 鈥� another bad case of the total eclipse of the art. Only us geeks would even think of picking up a Dickens and then we'd probably not because there would be The Pale King or 2666 which we hadn't read yet; or if we did get in the mood for some old school, we might find Wilkie Collins appearing in our literary mitts, because he's the Buster Keaton of Victorian melodrama.
Surface noise
I listen to old music a lot. When I say old, I don't mean the 1990s, I mean the 1920s and 30s. If you do that you have to accept surface noise. Sometimes it's real BAD, like on Charlie Patton records, where it's like Charlie himself is frying some sausage, eggs and bacon right there in front of you as well as playing "High Water Everywhere". It's ugly. Most times, though, surface noise is like a fine hissy undercoating, like on Al Bowlly doing The Very Thought of You. After a while, it becomes part of the atmosphere of these great old songs.
Other art forms have their surface noise too. In movies if you go back to the 50s you get 鈥� oh the horror! 鈥� black and white films. I know people who will not watch black & white movies. It's hard work for them. They think the dvd is broken. They imply with their slight uncomfortable body movements that we have dishwashers now so we don't wash up dishes by hand; we don't till the fields and raise our own chickens; so why would we want to watch a black & white movie? So that's the movies' version of surface noise. You have to accept it or be cut off from the great movies of pre-colour.
But then there is another problem when we peer into the past. It's the surface noise of the mind. This is when you become aware of the various weird, outrageous, unfunny attitudes and just strange stuff the people in these old movies did and had. There are many scenes where the guy is driving along in a car with a girl and he'll be smoking, she'll be smoking, and he'll be chatting away looking at her and not even pretending to drive for three or four entire minutes. Well, of course, they weren't driving, it was a back-projection, but they do these scenes so contemptuously, it begins to look like it's supposed to seem fake, like some kind of Brechtian alienation device, but you know that's not what they were aiming at, so you get discombobulated. And in every scene from the 30s to the 50s, if a guy and a woman go into a room together, the guy has the woman's upper arm or elbow in a vice like grip. I mean, what? Was that polite back then? Also, the movies have titles like His Girl Friday 鈥� offensive on several levels! Try telling the modern misses of today that His Girl Friday is a cracking satire of tabloid journalism. You won't get far.
Chaplin was supposed to be universal, as was Dickens. We now see that their universality did not travel in time. What everyone - I mean EVERYONE - read, watched and loved in those days has become rarified truffles for the elite of geek. But Charles and Charlie were the guys who were massively popular first. They wrote the first book on how to be very very popular. Since Dickens and Chaplin, I'd count Elvis, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Harry Potter and Twilight to be in the same phenomenal stratosphere. Can't think anyone else approaching those select few. Interesting that four out of the seven are British.
But I'll bet that the 20 year olds of 2080 will be glowering at Harry Potter and thinking to themselves whoever liked this glurking plaf? This blecking plaffy old movie. It's enough to make you goff your newts!

I have to agree with the other reviews. You have to be a true Chaplin fan to read this epic by David Robinson. There are only two books necessary for the Chaplin fan; "My Autobiograpy", by Chaplin himself, and this book by Robinson. While there are scores of other books on the market concerning Chaplin's life, Robinson's is THE definitive work.
If Charlie had been around to read this work, he might have amended his famous phrase from "If you want to know me, see my movies," to "If you want to know me, see my movies ...and read this book."

This is the big Chaplin biography. Barring heretofore unknown revelations, David Robinson's work should remain the standard by which all other Chaplin life studies are judged. Robinson himself is a film historian of note as well as a critic of some substance. Accordingly, he is able to bring the element of a critical biography into play, which analyzes Chaplin's films within the context of his life and career. From Chaplin's hard early life to his success in Hollywood and his later disfavor with the US government, Robinson covers everything of importance as well as providing anecdotal stories that illuminate the comedian's character.

Over the years I have read many biographies and analyses of Chaplin's "life and art". This one seems to me to the the most comprehensive and compelling. I had the opportunity to meet the author last week and have a brief conversation, which was a wonderful moment for me. Mr. Robinson was very gracious in sharing insights into his work with me.

Chaplin: His Life and Art effectively posits itself as a supplement to Chaplin鈥檚 autobiography which, this author points out, didn鈥檛 share many details about the actual making of his movies. So this book follows Chaplin鈥檚 whole life but especially focuses on production details about each of his films. And it does a great job at this, devoting a chapter to each of the major works, but if you鈥檙e looking for some of the more scandalous details of Chaplin鈥檚 scandalous life, this isn鈥檛 the book for you. Robinson is an admirer of Chaplin, which is expected when crafting a work dedicated to a genius鈥檚 art, but I wish he dug deeper into his trials and tribulations, if only because of how much they influenced Chaplin鈥檚 art. But this book is engaging and informative, and though Robinson is on Chaplin鈥檚 side in most of the conflicts he does discuss, he鈥檚 not dogmatic. He acknowledges how difficult and monomaniacal Chaplin could be. The end of Chaplin鈥檚 life is discussed touchingly, but I wish, since this is the era the autobiography doesn鈥檛 cover, it hadn鈥檛 been such a brief chapter. All in all, an excellent supplement to Chaplin鈥檚 autobiography, and a great study of his art, if not a definitive portrait of the artist.

A comprehensive biography of the world鈥檚 most famous clown, revealing his enormous drive for work, his sense for the tragicomic and his love for (barely adult) teenage actresses. It clearly depicts how alive and contemporary Charlie鈥檚 major films (The kid, The Gold Rush, Modern Times, The Great Dictator, limelight) still are.
The readability of this biography is hampered by its extensive details (including crew info on each and every film). Despite the tight chronological structure the transitions between the paragraphs are often haphazard and not logically connected.

His spirit is captured in this character; it鈥檚 inescapable鈥攜ou can鈥檛 miss it! You can鈥檛 look away! The accuracy absorbs your minutest attentions鈥攖o think we see ourselves painstakingly and clearly portrayed in footage over a hundred years old!
That鈥檚 what makes him timeless. That honesty, that reality. That, and his humanitarian philosophy towards every living thing, his constant and genuine alliance with the underdog.

4,25 stars - Dutch paperback
I听pity folks who don't permit themselves the luxury of indulging in silent era cinema. If I could travel back in time I'd partake of all the wonders from the magic lantern, mutoscopes, & kinetoscopes of nickelodeons to movie palaces.
My favorite silent pictures include -- Teinosuke Kinugasa's "A Page of Madness", Robert Wiene's "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari", F.W Murnau's "Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans", "Faust" & "Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror", Leni Riefenstahl's "Das blaue Licht" (The Blue Light) & "Olympia", Lucien Hubbard's "Wings", Lotte Reiniger "Adventures of Prince Achmed', King Vidor's "The Crowd", Ted Wilde's "Speedy", Harold Lloyd's.
The London Cinema Museum is a great resource for the history & memorabilia of film & they just happen to be located in the Old Lambeth Workhouse where Charlie Chaplin went as a child.
Of all the stars of the silent screen Charlie Chaplin stands out as the brightest.
David Robinson's "Charlie Chaplin, His Life and Art" is, in my opinion, the finest of the numerous volumes written about him.

My favorite silent pictures include -- Teinosuke Kinugasa's "A Page of Madness", Robert Wiene's "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari", F.W Murnau's "Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans", "Faust" & "Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror", Leni Riefenstahl's "Das blaue Licht" (The Blue Light) & "Olympia", Lucien Hubbard's "Wings", Lotte Reiniger "Adventures of Prince Achmed', King Vidor's "The Crowd", Ted Wilde's "Speedy", Harold Lloyd's.
The London Cinema Museum is a great resource for the history & memorabilia of film & they just happen to be located in the Old Lambeth Workhouse where Charlie Chaplin went as a child.
Of all the stars of the silent screen Charlie Chaplin stands out as the brightest.
David Robinson's "Charlie Chaplin, His Life and Art" is, in my opinion, the finest of the numerous volumes written about him.

Though it did occasionally skirt with the hagiographic end of bios, this is probably about as good a book about the legendary comic actor/director you could find. It takes a conventional approach, with the usual slightly tedious trawl through his impoverished early life in Kennington (dad died early of the drink, and his mother was mentally ill, so he and Syndey, naturally enough, went on stage to earn a crust), through to the early days in music hall (his first appearance was in Sherlock Holmes), then with the famous Fred Karno troupe (alongside Stan Jefferson-Laurel) and so on, until he reached and conquered Hollywood and then became the most famous man in the world, as you do. After CC arrives in what was then the silent era, the biography focuses on his career film by film, and takes you behind the scenes of Charlie's agonising directorial style and his political-personal troubles. The latter are dealt with fairly sympathetically here but to 21C eyes his proclivity for 17-year-old actresses does look a bit inopportune. His political troubles are easier to sympathise with - he was an auto-didact who liked to hob-nob with famous intellectuals but his liberal political ideas were somewhat under-developed and slightly sentimental, and his films reflect this (see the Great Dictator and Modern Times, for example). Many see Chaplin as a direct heir to the Dickensian tradition and this book lends credibility to that view, I think.

I think you have to like Chaplin to get through this book. I love Chaplin. So I'm glad there's a biography so thorough as this one, that collects in 632 pages and 100 pages of appendices pretty much every thing you might want to know about him.
It took me a while to get through (partly because I kept going to youtube to watch films as I was reading those parts, and watching the 3-episode Unknown Chaplin, which BBC production came out around the same time as this book and is almost a companion piece to it).
The book breaks down into two main parts - his childhood and his movies. His childhood is like a Dickens novel until he gets on a tour of the US with the Karno troupe. After he gets into movie making, the periods of his life are defined by his contracts (for the two-reeler periods), and then by each movie he made (once he was his own boss). The man lived his work.
So, if you want to know if you should read this book, and you've never seen The Gold Rush or The Kid or Shoulder Arms or A Dog's Life or The Pilgrim or City Lights or Modern Times, watch one or two of them first. If you're blown away, and you think about the fact that he directed and wrote them and scored them as well as starring in them, go ahead and seek this book out.

Too-adoring biography always takes the best view of Chaplin's often checkered personal life, and doesn't really dig into the drive for control that made Chaplin one of the first modern artists.

Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin, mais conhecido como Charlie Chaplin, nascido na Inglaterra em 1889 e falecido na Su铆莽a em 1977, creio, dispensa maiores apresenta莽玫es.
Ator, diretor, produtor, roteirista, m煤sico, compositor foi o g锚nio (ep铆teto que ele detestava) respons谩vel por verdadeiras e aclamadas obras primas do cinema tais como 鈥淰ida de cachorro鈥� (1918), 鈥淥 garoto鈥� (1921), 鈥淓m busca do ouro鈥� (1925), 鈥淥 circo鈥� (1928), 鈥淟uzes da cidade鈥� (1931), 鈥淭empos modernos鈥� (1936), 鈥淥 grande ditador鈥� (1940), 鈥淟uzes da ribalta鈥� (1952).
Sua turbulenta, brilhante e multifacetada trajet贸ria 茅 contada, de forma talvez at茅 excessivamente minuciosa, nesse 贸timo livro intitulado 鈥淐haplin; Uma biografia definitiva鈥� de autoria do cr铆tico de cinema e historiador brit芒nico, nascido em 1930, David Robinson.
O autor se esmerou em reproduzir cartas, depoimentos, impress玫es e detalhes t茅cnicos que, 脿s vezes tornam a leitura um tanto cansativa, mas em todos os aspectos que realmente interessam na vida do 铆cone Charlie Chaplin ele se sai muito bem e a experi锚ncia da leitura, ao fim e ao cabo dela, 茅 por demais gratificante.
S茫o fascinantes as quest玫es ligadas ao gradual nascimento do 鈥渧agabundo鈥� Carlitos, talvez a maior cria莽茫o de Chaplin assim como aspectos t茅cnicos ligados ao processo de cria莽茫o dos roteiros, atua莽玫es, pantomimas, cen谩rios, escolha de elenco e mesmo tecnicalidades como ilumina莽茫o, fotografia, quantidade de pel铆cula gasta em cada filme etc.
A biografia ganha musculatura quando o autor aborda temas realmente pol锚micos da vida de Chaplin como a sua resist锚ncia ao cinema falado que, segundo ele, seria uma 鈥渕oda passageira鈥�, a sua nem sempre harm么nica rela莽茫o com as v谩rias mulheres de sua vida, seus filhos e, a sua pioneira defesa da abertura de um segundo front na Europa para combater os nazistas e unir esfor莽os 脿 URSS, a sua corajosa den煤ncia da pobreza e da mis茅ria e sua igualmente corajosa defesa da eleva莽茫o do n铆vel de vida da classe trabalhadora e talvez, principalmente ( e lamentavelmente), a persegui莽茫o que ele sofreu nos USA na 茅poca da 鈥渃a莽a 脿s bruxas macarthista鈥� em que ele foi acusado de 鈥渃omunista鈥�, 鈥渄evasso鈥�, 鈥渁nti-patri贸tico鈥� e como ele, humanista e pacifista que era, sofreu a ponto de ser obrigado a deixar os USA e viver na Europa at茅 a sua morte em 1977.
As homenagens, 脿 guisa de repara莽茫o, que lhe foram feitas no final de sua vida, n茫o foram suficientes para que ele superasse completamente o trauma das injustas persegui莽玫es que sofreu e, no final, ele era um homem realmente desiludido com a humanidade que ele tanto tentou aprimorar com sua arte.
Excelente!

A fantastic, dense, detailed and incredibly informative book. Every detail of Chaplin's life is examined from the very early days right up to the infamous "grave robbing" incident. As a fan of Chaplin's since I was a child, this book as always been a "must read" for me and it didn't disappoint. Robinson lays everything out clearly and allows for many fun little details to be tossed in as well. This book is not for the light of heart - at over 700 pages the information comes fast and furiously, but I soaked up every word. Chaplin was and is a genius in filmmaking and created everything we know in modern cinema.
To truly appreciate this book, you must be quite familiar with the filmography of Chaplin. Fortunately, throughout my life I have seen (almost) all of his shorts, along with his feature films. Robinson goes into vivid detail in regards to each specific film - if you haven't seen them, I can see this being incredibly laborious. For a Chaplin fan, it was a true pleasure.
To top it all off, I bought this book from an antique shop for $10 and was shocked to notice on the front page of the book, an autograph from the author himself! What a find.

The first third or so of this book is fascinating. It recounts Chaplin鈥檚 childhood in London, his entry into the world of London鈥檚 music halls, and follows him to the States. He is 鈥渄iscovered鈥� and goes to Los Angeles at the near inception of silent movies. Chaplin鈥檚 genius was his intuitive ability to act in a way that transcended the distance between actor and audience inherent in the medium of film. He mastered every aspect of movie making starting with his pantomime comedy and extending to the direction of the actors and cutting/editing what the film had captured. He was a founder of the new art of movies.
Regrettably, the rest of the book reads is a rather plodding account of Chaplin鈥檚 mid and late career. This portion of the book gets lost in its unrestrained adoration of the man. The Chaplin who appears here is a cardboard cut-off cleaned of any faults or mistakes.

I'll start by saying I'm not a big Chaplin fan, but he's one of those iconic figures that I hugely respect so I wanted to know more about him and this book came the best recommended. It's a classic and had me hooked right the way through, it's already been said by much better people than me that it won't be bettered and you can see why, the author has done a fabulous and monumental job in bringing everything about Chaplin together. My only regret was that there was not enough about Chaplin's life outside his work but the title tells you what you get so I'll go back to that subject later through Chaplin's own words. This is a fantastic book.
Read
June 11, 2020What a fine biography.. The intertwining of Chaplin's life with his art is done flawlessly, without compromising the authenticity of narrative. Chaplin the artist, the intimate and somewhat irritable person with the immediate close ones, and the rebel speaker when it comes to voicing opinions on contemporary politics and the social order, all three are presented with authentic juxtaposition of facts and events, painstakingly researched!! Hats off to David Robinson the author par excellence! A biography worth reading over and over!!

A Star who made millions of people laugh lived such a contrast in his real life. His struggles are highlighted earlier in the book. His ascent to the fame world is brilliantly described with author dissecting his vision behind his acting, writing and direction skills. Book also explains how he became a victim of being pro communist whereas he was above such discrimination. The best part reading this biography is that he made me start watching his movies again and reconnect me to childhood

A necessary read after 'My Autobiography' by the man himself. Robinson provides great details around the films produced and about all of the characters employed, in front of and behind the cameras. Importantly, Robinson provides great insight into Chaplin the man, a complex, intelligent and gregarious character. An incentive to find our more about this giant of the 20th century world of cinema.
