"Failure is unimportant, it takes courage to make a fool out of yourself."
Charlie Chaplin is one of the most creative and influential personalities in the history of cinema. In 1916, the Mutual Film Corporation paid him $670,000 to produce and star in a dozen comedies. He was given near complete artistic control, and produced twelve films in eighteen-months, that still rank among the most influential comedy films in all cinema. Here is my little tribute to Charlie Chaplin and his multi-faceted, trailblazing genius! A true hero!
