His was an extraordinary life. Both their mother and Chaplin's father had been in vaudeville and both boys were to succeed in their ambition. It is almost certain that malnutrition caused his mother's breakdown.

About this product
Product Information
As a child, Charlie Chaplin was awed and inspired by the sight of glamorous vaudeville stars passing his home, and from then on he never lost his ambition to become an actor. Chaplin's film career as the Little Tramp adored by the whole world is the stuff of legend, but this frank autobiography shows another side. He tells of his childhood of grinding poverty in the south London slums and early debut on the music hall stage, his lucky break in America, the struggle to maintain artistic control over his work, the string of failed marriages, and his eventual exile from Hollywood after persecution for his left-wing politics and personal scandals. My Autobiography is an evocative and compelling account of one of the twentieth century's most remarkable lives.Product Identifiers

A must read.
Considering his poor start in life, Chaplin rose from humble beginnings to superstardom. This book takes you through his early start in show business, the highs and the lows, right up until his success in America. A wonderful autobiography.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
