History of Charlies Chaplin,The Crown Of Clowns.

Chaplin, Charlie (1889-1977), English motion-picture actor, director, producer, and composer, one of the most creative artists in film history, who first achieved worldwide fame through his performances in silent films. His full name was Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin.Born in London, as a child Chaplin appeared in music hall and pantomime performances. In 1910 he toured the United States with a pantomime troupe and decided to remain in the country. Chaplin first appeared on the screen in 1914 with the Keystone Film Company of American director Mack Sennett. In Kid Auto Races at Venice (1914), wearing baggy pants, enormous shoes, and a bowler hat and carrying a bamboo cane, he originated his world-famous character, the Tramp. He played this classic role in more than 70 films during his career. He was associated later with the Essanay Film Company, the Mutual Film Company, and the First National Film Company. In 1918 his own studio in Hollywood, California, was completed. During these years Chaplin gradually developed the tramp character from a jaunty, slapstick stereotype into the compassionate human figure that came to be loved by audiences throughout the world. In 1919 he helped found the United Artists Corporation, with which he was associated until 1952. Important pictures Chaplin produced, directed, and starred in include The Kid (1921), The Pilgrim (1923), The Gold Rush (1925), The Circus (1928), City Lights (1931), Modern Times (1936), The Great Dictator (1940), Monsieur Verdoux (1947), Limelight (1952), and A King in New York (1957). Chaplin wrote, directed, and played in A Countess from Hong Kong (1967). He also composed background music for most of his films.
In the late 1940s and early 1950s Chaplin was criticized for his leftist political views. As a result, he left the United States in 1952 and established permanent residence in Switzerland. In 1972 he briefly returned to the United States to receive several tributes, among them a special Academy Award for his contributions to the film industry. He was knighted in 1975.Chaplin perfected an individual style of performing, derived from the circus clown and the mime, combining acrobatic elegance, expressive gesture, facial eloquence, and impeccable timing. His portrayal of the little tramp, a universally recognized symbol of indestructible individuality triumphing over adversity and persecution, both human and mechanical, won him critical renown as a tragicomedian. Film sound recording in the late 1920s, however, imperiled the effectiveness of the pantomime on which much of his creative imagination depended; also, he became concerned with themes of contemporary significance. In his first two films of the sound era, City Lights and Modern Times, Chaplin's little tramp remained silent. Subsequently, he abandoned the role of the tramp and relied upon specific character portrayal. The Great Dictator, which uses all the resources of sound recording, marks this transition. Chaplin's treatment of his subjects compounds satire and pathos, revealing a love of humanity and of individual freedom. He wrote My Autobiography (1964; reprinted as My Early Years, 1982) and My Life in Movies (1975). Sir Richard Attenborough's biographical film Chaplin appeared in 1992.["Chaplin, Charlie," Microsoft(R) Encarta(R) 97 Encyclopedia. (c) 1993-1996 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.]

History Of Bollywood

The Indian film industry has a huge fan base not only at home but also abroad, especially in countries which have a significant Indian population. The term Bollywood is a term coined for the Hindi-language film industry set in Bombay, India. Bollywood is often incorrectly referred to the whole of Indian Cinema. It is in fact just a part of the film industry.

The introduction of Cinema in India began with the Lumiere Brothers' screening six silent short films at the Watson Hotel in Bombay. In 1910, Dadasaheb Phalke attended a screening of The Life of Christ at P.B. Mehta's American - Indian Cinema and decided to become a filmmaker himself. His first silent film Raja Harishchandra was released in 1913. The first Indian feature film with sound was Ardeshir Irani's Alam Ara (1931) which became a super hit. The period between the 1930's and 1940's saw a great number of social upheavals and the partitioning of India. While most filmmakers chose the easy way out, there were some directors who embarked upon various social issues and used the freedom movement as a backdrop for their scripts.

The 1950's brought with it colour films, yet people continued to ardently follow black and white films till the mid-1960s. Story plots usually revolved around romance and melodramatic themes. Success stories from this generation include actors like Dilip Kumar, Nargis, Madhubala, Nutan, Raj Kapoor, Meena Kumari, and Dev Anand. Directors soon changed focus from romance in the 1960's to action films with stars like Dharmendra, Anil Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini, Jaya Bachchan and Rekha. This trend continued till the early 1990's.

The 1990's saw the focus of films shifting back to family-centric love stories. Successful films of that period include Hum Aapke Hain Kaun (1994) and Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995). The actors noted for their performance and who later on went on to bag bigger and better roles include Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Shahrukh Khan and actresses like Madhuri Dixit and Kajol. At the same time comedy and action films continued to hold the audience's attention with popular actors such as Govinda, Akshay Kumar, Raveena Tandon and Karisma Kapoor. Independent art films slowly started succeeding commercially around this time as well.

In 2000 Bollywood started garnering attention overseas due to box office hits such as Devdas, Kal Ho Naa Ho, Dhoom 2, while delivering a whole new generation of fresh young faces such as Aishwarya Rai, Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta and Rani Mukerji.[ Courtesy from: enzine article]
