I surf the internet

I surf the internet, and I find that Charlie Chaplin is an interesting person, besides he is also a smart man because he can write and direct a film by himself. He is a comedy actor who amuses the audience. He is a classic model which is Americans used to laughed at Englishmen. He played many roles in many films, and he also influenced many people in dressing style. In a word, he is a legend in film field. Now I want to introduce his life in 1910-1919 and his films and other things about him.

Charlie Chaplin is actually the classic model of early on he English gentleman of a kind of satire. Baggy pants and shoes are in fact a naysayer, because when the clothes is with the fit. The English language is that it fits well suit, of course, used as a noun is the meaning of the suit. But fashion always is as creative and to the but again filled with treason, in the 20 century one zero s, although custom requirements "tight", and Charlie Chaplin is line loose style, this is without a doubt fashionable. Charlie Chaplin was wearing a look like now as boys skirt a sensation.

Circa 1910, Chaplin first toured the United States with the Fred Karno troupe from 1910 to 1912.

After five months in England, he returned to the U.S. for a second tour, arriving with the Karno Troupe on 2 October 1912.

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 as a replacement for Ford Sterling. Chaplin had considerable 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.Most historians agree it was Normand who persuaded him to give Chaplin another chance.

Chaplin acted in his film debut Making a Living (1914)

Kid Auto Races at Venice (released on 7 February 1914).

In 1915, Chaplin signed a much more favourable contract with Essanay Studios, and further developed his cinematic skills, adding new levels of depth and pathos to the Keystone-style slapstick.

In 1916, the Mutual Film Corporation paid Chaplin US$670,000 to produce a dozen two-reel comedies.

At the conclusion of the Mutual contract in 1917, Chaplin signed a contract with First National to produce eight two-reel films.

Chaplin assumed control of his productions in 1918 (and kept exhibitors and audiences waiting for them), entrepreneurs serviced the demand for Chaplin by bringing back his older comedies

In 1919, Chaplin co-founded the United Artists film distribution company with Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and D. W. Griffith,

The Tramp in 1914.

Making a Living in 1914

Highlights include The Immigrant (1917)

Chaplin had a strong affinity for sentimentality and pathos (which was popular in the 1920s), Lloyd was renowned for his everyman persona and 1920s optimism, and Keaton adhered to onscreen stoicism with a cynical tone more suited to modern audiences.

During World War I, Chaplin was criticised in the British press for not joining the Army. He had in fact presented himself for service, but was denied for being too small at 5'5" and underweight. Chaplin raised substantial funds for the war effort during was bond drives not only with public speaking at rallies but also by making, at his own expense, The Bond, a comedicpropaganda film used in 1918.

Chaplin's "tramp" character is possibly the most imitated on all levels of entertainment. Chaplin once entered a "Chaplin look-alike" competition and did not make the final round.The influence of his 'Tramp' character could be seen on other artists and media providers.

From 1917 to 1918, silent film actor Billy West made more than 20 films as a comedian precisely imitating Chaplin's tramp character, makeup and costume.

By the way, I want to mention that his love story is very romantic and he has many children which amazes me.
