Was $27.99. Charlie Chaplin was first lauded and later reviled by the audience that made him Hollywood's richest man. Louvish looks afresh at this classic comedian and his most recognizable character: The Tramp. Call this a more specialized version of a biography. Louvish is the author of several biographies relating to the great clowns if the screen and also teaches at the London Film School. He knows his stuff.   #42317
