I still need to see more of both of their works

Charlie Chaplin  (via chaplinandkeaton)

Photo of Charlie Chaplin & ballerina Anna Pavlova  from vintage German magazine.  Germany was slow to embrace the greatness of Charlie Chaplin.  When he went back to London in 1921 he took a trip to Berlin, he was virtually unknown there as his films had not yet been shown.  One night sitting in a restaurant way in the back he was finally recognized by an American Officer, that was also the night he met one of Germany’s biggest movie stars Pola Negri.

My favorite portrait of Charlie…he looks absolutely gorgeous ♡ 

Charlie Chaplin and Paulette Goddard during production of “Modern Times”  

Picture from Chicago Tribune -  April 1956  Victoria (with her mother Oona), arriving at London Airport from Switzerland, her father Charlie Chaplin was working on his film “A King in New York”in London at that time.

For me never was the tramp as sad and as lonely “The -Gold Rush”

A chicken for New Year’s Eve party?? Anyone??

Note: This was shown in a French documentary called La Naissance de Charlot (released in 2013).

Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin, 1941

Mary was purported to have said later in life.

Chaplin arrives at Plymouth in Feb 1931, on his way to London for the premiere of City Lights at The Dominion Theatre. On the same ocean liner with him were Steve Donoghue and Malcom Campbell.

Rest In Peace our Little Tramp. You will live forever in our hearts ♡
