Getting to know Chaplin for the first time

The film was finally finished after a break, which gave me a little understanding of Chaplin's experience. After watching the whole movie, I felt that Robert Jr.'s acting was superbly terrifying. He seemed to give me a Chaplin feeling. But the makeup in his later years is still a bit weird. The whole person is pale and pale. I don't think Chaplin would look like this in his later years. I know almost nothing about Chaplin, but I feel his greatness from what other people tell and in this movie. This kind of person is really a genius, and his talent has been shown since he sang for his mother on stage. When it comes to his mother, I think she is the kind of mentally ill psychopath who drives her crazy when life forces her. Chaplin was also forced to send her to a mental hospital. When she was dragged into the mental hospital by the hospital staff, the cry was extremely mournful and piercing. Eventually Chaplin got rich, but his mother still crushed the biscuits, ready to take them, and put them in a small bag. This makes me very sad, and being a mother is not easy. Chaplin was helpless and didn't know how to arrange his mother. Why the previous wives left him, I think it was probably because he was at the peak of his career and didn't have so much time to spend with his wife and children. His wife asked him if he could go out with the kids, and Chaplin always said he would go tomorrow, tomorrow. But of course the so-called tomorrow did not go. In the end, the reason why I can live with Una is not only because I really met the right person, but also because I don’t spend so much time on filming in my later years, so the relationship with Una will definitely be better. Some.

As a young man, I don't have too many professional views, and my understanding of many things is not deep enough. So this review is just for sentimental reasons
