Monsieur Verdoux and communist accusations is.. misleading
[edit]In "Monsieur Verdoux and communist accusations" It talks about "The FBI wanted him out of the country, and launched an official investigation in early 1947.", and then goes on to talk about "Chaplin received a subpoena to appear before the House Un-American Activities Committee, like it was done after the FBI launched the investigation. But the subpoena was in 1941... well before the investigation. It also leave out the reason for the subpoena, which was his speech in his movie the Great Dictator, that the Committee felt sounded "Un-American".Shion-ko (talk) 01:45, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
1915 not 2015
[edit]He directed his own films and continued to hone his craft as he moved to Essanay Studios, where the Tramp persona was developed emotionally in The Tramp (2015).
1915 not 2015

Request: Add to personal life as a quote
[edit]Quote:
Schulberg remembers sneaking out of his room to watch the famous parties with his sister, Sonya, now 71, and his brother, Stuart, who died in 1979 at the age of 57. They would perch at the top of the grand staircase and watch the celebrities cavort below. "I can still see Chaplin behaving like a child," he says. "It was the party to welcome Maurice Chevalier to America in 1928, and Chaplin was being ignored. He always had to be at the center of things, so he started banging away at the piano, just like a baby who demands attention."
