- Synopsis:
Veteran 'Time' critic Richard Schickel crafts this extraordinary Charles Chaplin tribute whose world premiere was a highlight of 2003's Cannes Film Festival. Included are classic comedy bits; home movies of Chaplin playing tennis with Groucho Marx or working a routine that became 'The Great Dictator's' famed Globe Dance; plus insightful interviews with Woody Allen, Martin Scorsese, Johnny Depp, Robert Downey Jr., Chaplin family members and more. Enjoy the genius of one of film's enduring icons. Then find any of the Chaplin films and prove for yourself why Chaplin's genius remains the same in modern living rooms as it did years ago in crowded nickelodeons: his movies still delight children and adults alike. - Actors:
