- www.bbc.co.uk
- Charlie Chaplin on set The FBI's Charlie Chaplin files comprise an encyclopaedia of gossip, hearsay, second-rate spookery and the preposterous testimony of unreliable witnesses. Some of its reports are trivial - the first pages of the dossier describe how, at the party for William Foster, Chaplin mocked the film censor by hanging a pennant over the door of the Gents, emblazoned with the words, 'Welcome Will Hays'.
- Other testimonies are so patently crazy that even Hoover's agents sound a note of caution - a later report claims that Chaplin and his associates were 'purchasing all types of arms including revolvers, machine guns, and rifles, and storing these arms at an undisclosed address on Ventura Boulevard', and added that the gang had procured six aeroplanes to transport this arsenal backwards and forwards to Mexico.
- Dip into these documents, and one thing soon becomes clear: Hoover and the FBI made a tremendous effort to smear Chaplin's reputation, and they didn't much care whether politics, sex or financial misdeeds furnished them with the means to do so.
- Attenborough invented the scene in Chaplin (1992) in which Hoover is humiliated at a dinner party, where Charlie upstages him with a performance of the Dance of the Bread Rolls from The Gold Rush (1925). The second is that Chaplin was not the only comedian whom the Bureau attempted to discredit: the files show, for example, that Hoover's men put some effort into collecting evidence that Lou Costello was a porn-hoarding Mafia stooge.
- There was, however, a personal element in Hoover's pursuit of Chaplin. ... In August 1947, for example, he made an urgent request for a copy of a flattering assessment of Chaplin's work that had been published in the pages of the Soviet daily, Pravda, believing this to be evidence of the comedian's communist sympathies. ...

- The movie was written and directed by Chaplin. ...
- According to Kevin Brownlow and David Gill's documentary series Unknown Chaplin, the first scenes to be written and filmed take place in what became the movie's second half, in which the penniless Tramp finds a coin and goes for a meal in a restaurant, not realising that the coin has fallen out of his pocket. It was not until later that Chaplin decided the reason the Tramp was penniless was that he had just arrived on a boat from Europe, and used this notion as the basis for the first half. ...
- The scene in which Chaplin's character kicks an immigration officer was cited later as evidence of his anti-Americanism when he was forced to leave the United States in the 1950s. ...

- Charlie Chaplin I have said that I am not a historian and as such often cannot come up with the hard facts to support what I believe to be true. ... This article describes how even the very famous Charlie Chaplin was prevented from working as "The Reds under the bed" scare got underway as early as 1920. ... Chaplin was Jewish and a comedian with no role to play in anything political.
- Simply Steve Chaplin, Charlie, and the Political Left.
- Beginning as early as the 1920s, rumors that Charles Chaplin was a Communistor Bolshevik sympathizer were shrugged off at first and, in the character of Charlie, even satirized. The power of the icon was such that, even though Chaplin was fairly liberal, the types of witch-hunters who would destroy all but themselves were unable to squelch his fame or destroy him personally. It was upon attempting to fuse a new unity between his icon and his rather disparate self, in The Great Dictator, that Chaplin opened a rift between himself and his audience. After that film, by removing the Tramp (or, finally, barber) as the most important image of himself, Chaplin left bigots easily able to twist misrememberings of his pleas for the common man into anti-American attitudes, his pledges of allegiance to international citizenship into false pro-foreigner zealotry. ...
- Chaplin was questioned quite early on about his political views. ...
- " The same excuse was used in 1927: when Chaplin was pursued for tax evasion, he pointed out that no political motive was involved (although a political cartoon parodied the situation anyway).
- It was an era, however, of conflict between the right and the left, before Nazi power was completely consolidated, so a group of unemployed cinema workers was able to assemble without consequence outside Chaplin's hotel. Robinson recounts how the band threatened a mob demonstration if they didn't get an audience with Chaplin; as a result, he let a few in and admitted he was sorry for their plight, "but there were 75,000 unemployed in Hollywood also. An hour later, the Berlin Communist daily newspaper was out with a report that Chaplin had received a delegation of its editors and had expressed deep sympathy with the Communist cause. ...
- A few years later Chaplin produced Modern Times (1936), which if one was really searching for socialism, one might interpret as an assault on capitalism. Personally, the present author shares the view of critics he has read in finding it more a comment on the machine age in general; Chaplin's character has been described as anarchic (1985: 459), but not in a realistic, politically aware sense. Charlie's environment, which forces Charlie to live, breathe, and even eat machines (an automatic feeder forces grommets down his throat) with him completely out of control, is less realistic than an example in which he might have retained some control. How revolutionary Chaplin might have been at the time can be gauged by his employ of Alf Reeves to work on the ensuing Great Dictator; Reeves suspected that because "I was a declared Communist. ... In general, Chaplin seemed willing to tolerate Communism, but only because he supported humanity in general. ...

61. Chaplin Essay #3
- wso.williams.edu
- Chaplin, Charlie, and Fascism.
- It is perhaps not surprising, states historian Charles Maland, that Chaplin should have chosen to make a film -- 1940's The Great Dictator -- in which his icon appeared as a rebellious Jewish ghetto resident under the regime of Adenoid Hynkel (Hitler). ... The two shared not merely the famous mustache which suggested the tack Chaplin's parody could take, but also their demand for "strict control over their subordinates when, as adults, they achieved positions of power. " (Maland 1983: 164) In 1936, the New York Times referred to Chaplin as "parsimonious, contradictory, egotistic, difficult -- even unreasonable to work with," and Dan James said that Chaplin "had in himself some of the qualities that Hitler had. ... And Chaplin's world was not a democracy either. ...
- Chaplin the artist was, remarkably close to how artists are stereotypically portrayed, obsessive in a frequently negative light. And both Chaplin and Hitler had gone through hard times which they then recalled in their work to build their iconic images: "each has mirrored. ... Charlie the icon had been of use earlier, to present his creator positively after potentially messy divorce news and other social problems came to light in the public eye. Now Charlie would come in handy again to keep anyone from associating his creator with the kind of egotistic, malicious rule that the Nazis represented. ...
- Actually, Chaplin (shown, at about this time, at left) had good reason to dislike the Nazis aside from embarrassment over his image onscreen or off. He had a strong hatred for authoritarian government in general -- particularly its dehumanizing aspects, which ran parallel to those of the machines of Modern Times and were exemplified in a 1937 short story Chaplin wrote, Rhythm: A Story of Men in Macabre Movement. Chaplin's memoirs and public statements make it clear that, not simply as a PR move, he felt great disgust with anti-Semitism (such as the Nazis exemplified) and had spoken out about it many times, this in an era when such pro-Jewish feelings were not so often spoken openly. David Robinson recounts how Chaplin met a young girl aboard ship during a 1921 tour, then complimented Jews as being geniuses upon learning she was Jewish. ... Perhaps he objected to the stereotype; given how he later showed Charlie as Jewish in The Great Dictator, it seems unlikely that he resented being identified with Jews. The Nazis, for some reason -- perhaps Charlie's sympathy for the underdog, and Chaplin's on-again, off-again similar values (which I discussed here) -- objected to Chaplin from the ground up, however, and from early on in their days of influence, strove to cast a dim light on both Charlie and his creator. Robinson has emphasized "a repellent anti-semitic paperback" published in Nazi Germany, which insulted Jewish intellectuals and included Chaplin among them, as "a little Jewish acrobat, as disgusting as he is tedious. " Peter Haining discusses the propaganda work, called Judisches Lexikon ("Dictionary of Jews") more completely, pointing out its citation of Chaplin's supposed real last name of Thonstein. ... Chaplin had good reason to hold many grudges against the German regime, and so it comes as no surprise to the modern historian that he decided to throw his icon into the storm: Charlie appeared, most critics have it, in The Great Dictator. Why "most critics?" Basically because Charles Chaplin subtly changed the icon. Charlie was no longer "the Tramp" in the film; the dreams of gentility, and the out-of-station genteel mannerisms Charlie had used had been replaced by a real job and social standing for the character.
