Vance, Jeffrey (1996). "The Circus: A Chaplin Masterpiece". Film History. 8 (2): 186–208. JSTOR 3815334. When filming began at the end of 1928, Chaplin had been working on the story for almost a year. [194] City Lights followed the Tramp's love for a blind flower girl (played by Virginia Cherrill) and his efforts to raise money for her sight-saving operation. It was a challenging production that lasted 21 months, [195] with Chaplin later confessing that he "had worked himself into a neurotic state of wanting perfection". [196] One advantage Chaplin found in sound technology was the opportunity to record a musical score for the film, which he composed himself. [196] [197] a b "United Artists and the Great Features". Charlie Chaplin. British Film Institute. Archived from the original on 6 April 2012 . Retrieved 21 June 2012.Chaplin and O'Neill met on 30 October 1942 and married on 16 June 1943 in Carpinteria, California. [263] Eugene O'Neill disowned his daughter as a result. [264] I wanted everything to be a contradiction: the pants baggy, the coat tight, the hat small and the shoes large ... I added a small moustache, which, I reasoned, would add age without hiding my expression. I had no idea of the character. But the moment I was dressed, the clothes and the makeup made me feel the person he was. I began to know him, and by the time I walked on stage he was fully born. [69] [i] City Lights had been a success, but Chaplin was unsure if he could make another picture without dialogue. He remained convinced that sound would not work in his films, but was also "obsessed by a depressing fear of being old-fashioned". [205] In this state of uncertainty, early in 1931, the comedian decided to take a holiday and ended up travelling for 16 months. [206] [w] He spent months travelling Western Europe, including extended stays in France and Switzerland, and spontaneously decided to visit Japan. [208] The day after he arrived in Japan, Prime Minister Inukai Tsuyoshi was assassinated by ultra-nationalists in the May 15 Incident. The group's original plan had been to provoke a war with the United States by assassinating Chaplin at a welcome reception organised by the prime minister, but the plan had been foiled due to delayed public announcement of the event's date. [209] Modern Times (1936), described by Jérôme Larcher as a "grim contemplation on the automatization of the individual" [210] The controversy surrounding Chaplin increased when–two weeks after the paternity suit was filed–it was announced that he had married his newest protégée, 18-year-old Oona O'Neill, the daughter of American playwright Eugene O'Neill. [262] Chaplin, then 54, had been introduced to her by a film agent seven months earlier. [ac] In his autobiography, Chaplin described meeting O'Neill as "the happiest event of my life", and claimed to have found "perfect love". [265] Chaplin's son, Charles III, reported that Oona "worshipped" his father. [266] The couple remained married until Chaplin's death, and had eight children over 18 years: Geraldine Leigh (b. July 1944), Michael John (b. March 1946), Josephine Hannah (b. March 1949), Victoria Agnes (b. May 1951), Eugene Anthony (b. August 1953), Jane Cecil (b. May 1957), Annette Emily (b. December 1959), and Christopher James (b. July 1962). [267] Monsieur Verdoux and communist accusations Monsieur Verdoux (1947), a dark comedy about a serial killer, marked a significant departure for Chaplin. The honour had already been proposed in 1931 and 1956, but was vetoed after a Foreign Office report raised concerns over Chaplin's political views and private life. They feared the act would damage the reputation of the British honours system and relations with the United States. [354]

Hannah became ill in May 1896, and was admitted to hospital. Southwark Council ruled that it was necessary to send the children to a workhouse "owing to the absence of their father and the destitution and illness of their mother". [18] C.

The British embassy made a statement saying: "[Chaplin] is of as much use to Great Britain now making big money and subscribing to war loans as he would be in the trenches." [115] The negative reaction to Monsieur Verdoux was largely the result of changes in Chaplin's public image. [279] Along with the damage of the Joan Barry scandal, he was publicly accused of being a communist. [280] His political activity had heightened during World War II, when he campaigned for the opening of a Second Front to help the Soviet Union and supported various Soviet–American friendship groups. [281] He was also friendly with several suspected communists, and attended functions given by Soviet diplomats in Los Angeles. [282] In the political climate of 1940s America, such activities meant Chaplin was considered, as Larcher writes, "dangerously progressive and amoral". [283] The FBI wanted him out of the country, [284] and launched an official investigation in early 1947. [285] [ae] Republic Studio, Daniel J. Bloomberg, and the Republic Studio Sound Department / Walter Wanger / The House I Live In / Peggy Ann Garner (1945) Describing his working method as "sheer perseverance to the point of madness", [386] Chaplin would be completely consumed by the production of a picture. [387] Robinson writes that even in Chaplin's later years, his work continued "to take precedence over everything and everyone else". [388] The combination of story improvisation and relentless perfectionism–which resulted in days of effort and thousands of feet of film being wasted, all at enormous expense–often proved taxing for Chaplin who, in frustration, would lash out at his actors and crew.
