Hardback. Simon Louvish, Faber & Faber. Whose tramp persona is famous the world over, even to those who have never seen his films . An everyman who expressed the defiant spirit of freedom, Charlie Chaplin was first lauded and later reviled in the America that made him Hollywood's richest man. He was a figure of m ultiple paradox…es, and many studies have south to unveil 'the man behind the mask.' But Simon Louvish's new book - following on from his five major biographies of comedy's classic stars, from W.C. Fields to Laurel and Hardy to Mae West - looks afresh at the 'mask behind the man.' Louvish chartsthe tale of the Tramp himself through his films - from the early Mack Sennett shorts through the major features (such as The Gold Rush, Modern Times, The Great Dictator). He weighs the relationship between the Tramp, his creator, and his worldwide fans, and in doing so retrieves Chaplin as the iconic London street-kid who carried the 'surreal' antics of early British Music Hall triumphantly on to the Hollywood screen. Louvish also looks anew at Chaplin's and the Tramp's social and political ideas - the challenge to fascism, defiance of the McCarthyite witch-hunts, eventual 'exile', and last mature disguises as the serial-killer Monsieur Verdoux and the dying English clown Calvero in Limelight. This book is an epic journey, summing up the roots of comedy and its appeal to audiences everywhere, who revelled in the clown's raw energy, his ceaseless struggle against adversity, and his capacity to represent our own fears, foibles, dreams, inner demons and hopes. Hardback.
