№ 479. Blue-Eyed Wisdom

Parallels between Chaplin and Adolf Hitler had been widely noted: the pair were born four days apart, both had risen from poverty to world prominence, and Hitler wore the same toothbrush moustache as Chaplin. It was this physical resemblance that supplied the plot for Chaplin's next film, The Great Dictator, which directly satirised Hitler and attacked fascism.




 Bento Box

1. Charlie Chaplin had piercing blue eyes.
2. He entered a Charlie Chaplin look alike contest and lost.
3. Chaplin wrote, directed, produced, edited, starred in, and composed the music for most of his films.
