Charlie Chaplin(16 April 1889 – 25 December 1977) was an English comic actor and film director of the silent film era who became one of the best-known film stars in the world before the end of the First World War.Chaplin used mime,slapstick and other visual comedy routines,and continued well into the era of the talkies,though his films decreased in frequency from the end of the 1920s.His most famous role was that of The Tramp,which he first played in the Keystone comedy Kid Auto Races at Venice in 1914.From the April 1914 one-reeler Twenty Minutes of Love onwards he was writing and directing most of his films,by 1916 he was also producing,and from 1918 composing the music.
Chaplin was one of the most creative and influential personalities of the silent-film era.He was influenced by his predecessor,the French silent movie comedian Max Linder,to whom he dedicated one of his films.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,until close to 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 McCarthy era in the early 1950s.
In 1999,the American Film Institute ranked Chaplin the 10th greatest male screen legend of all time.In 2008,Martin Sieff,in a review of the book Chaplin:A Life,wrote:"Chaplin was not just 'big',he was gigantic.In 1915,he burst onto a war-torn world bringing it the gift of comedy,laughter and relief while it was tearing itself apart through the First World War.Over the next 25 years,through the Great Depression and the rise of Hitler,he stayed on the job.It is doubtful any individual has ever given more entertainment,pleasure and relief to so many human beings when they needed it the most".George Bernard Shaw called Chaplin "the only genius to come out of the movie industry".

Early life in London(1889-1909)
Charles Spencer Chaplin was born on 16 April 1889, in East Street, Walworth, London, England. His parents were both entertainers in the music hall tradition. His father was a vocalist and an actor and his mother was a singer and an actress who went by the stage name Lilly Harley.They separated before Charlie was three. He learned singing from his parents. Chaplin's father was an alcoholic and had little contact with his son.
First years in the United States (1910–1916)
Chaplin first toured the United States with the Fred Karno troupe(卡尔诺哑剧剧团) from 1910 to 1912. After five months back in England, he returned to the U.S. for a second tour. In late 1913, Chaplin‘s act with the Karno Troupe was seen by Mack Sennett, Mabel Normand, Minta Durfee, and Fatty Arbuckle. Sennett hired him for his studio, the Keystone Film Company .
Chaplin had considerable initial difficulty adjusting to the demands of film acting and his performance suffered for it. After Chaplin's first film appearance, Making a Living was filmed, Sennett felt he had made a costly mistake. Chaplin believed Sennett intended to fire him. However, Chaplin's pictures were soon a success, and he became one of the biggest stars at Keystone. Pioneering film artist and global celebrity (1916–1918)
In 1916, the Mutual Film Corporation paid Chaplin US$670,000 to produce a dozen comedies. He was given near complete artistic control, and produced twelve films over an eighteen-month period that rank among the most influential comedy films in all cinema. Practically every Mutual comedy is a classic: Easy Street, One AM, The Pawnshop, and The Adventurer are perhaps the best known.

Practically every Mutual comedy is a classic: Easy Street, One AM, The Pawnshop, and The Adventurer are perhaps the best known. Although First National expected Chaplin to deliver short comedies like the celebrated Mutuals, Chaplin ambitiously expanded most of his personal projects into longer, feature-length films.
United Artists (1919–1939)
In 1919, Chaplin co-founded the United Artists film distribution company . All Chaplin‘s United Artists pictures were of feature length, beginning with the atypical(非典型的) drama in which Chaplin had only a brief cameo role(小配角), A Woman of Paris (1923). This was followed by the classic comedies The Gold Rush (1925) and The Circus (1928). After the arrival of sound films, Chaplin continued to focus on silent films; The Circus (1928), City Lights (1931), and Modern Times (1936) were essentially silent films scored with his own music and sound effects. Chaplin‘s first talking picture, The Great Dictator (1940 ) was an act of defiance(反抗,蔑视) against Nazism. He was nominated for Academy awards for Best Picture (producer), Best Original Screenplay (writer) and Best Actor in The Great Dictator.
Final works (1957–1976)
Chaplin's final two films were made in London: A King in New York (1957) in which he starred, wrote, directed and produced; and A Countess from Hong Kong (1967), which he directed, produced, and wrote. As well as directing these final films, Chaplin also wrote My Autobiography, between 1959 and 1963, which was published in 1964. From 1969 until 1976, Chaplin wrote original music compositions and scores(电影配乐) for his silent pictures and re-released them. Chaplin‘s last completed work was the score for his 1923 film A Woman of Paris, which was completed in 1976, by which time Chaplin was extremely frail(虚弱的), even finding communication difficult. g
Death (1977)
Chaplin's robust health began to slowly fail in the late 1960s, after the completion of his final film A Countess from Hong Kong, and more rapidly after he received his Academy Award in 1972. By 1977, he had difficulty communicating, and was using a wheelchair. Chaplin died in his sleep in Switzerland on Christmas Day 1977.
