Limelight
| Black and white film made in 1952, written and directed by Charlie Chaplin. Chaplin plays a has-been clown who rejuvenates himself by coming to the rescue of a young ballerina (Claire Bloom). Set in the turn-of-the-century music hall of the director's youth, it is his most personal film and autobiographical in content. |
| The film risks the charge of sentimentality and is played more for pathos than for comedy. It was Chaplin's last film made in the USA. |
