Everything you always wanted to know about Charles Chaplin but were too afraid to ask. It's all told in a most exciting way in this revealing documentary.
A look at the life and work of Charlie Chaplin in his own words featuring an in-depth interview he gave to Life magazine in 1966.
“From his impoverished alter ego to the many silenced women in his life, the real Chaplin continues to prove elusive in this inventive documentary. ‘Who is the real Charlie Chaplin?’, asks the documentary, and the answer is: ‘Who knows?’ A gripping, clear-eyed overview of his life and works.” - The Observer
