Never been seen on the screen

Editorial content. „The Invisible Stars

      The essence of acting is the elimination of self; we see

      the shadows but not the men who cast them.

      by E. R. Thompson

      Some day, when the full story of motion pictures comes

to be written, when we can look back on the film

successes and the famous film folk of these days and see

them in perspective, we shall realise that the finest

work has been done, the greatest personal triumph achieved,

by actors whose faces we have never really seen.“ (...)

      „No one has ever seen Charlie Chaplin.“ (...)

      „Who, out of all the world which has watched Charlie,

the Tramp, Charlie, the Pilgrim, Charlie, the Floorwalker,

Charlie at the Rink, Charlie, the father of The Kid, has

ever caught the face of the real Charlie, the face of Charles

Chaplin of Los Angeles?

      The world‘s greatest comedian has hidden himself

away from the world behind a face that is not his, but the

world‘s own.“ (...)

      Six photos. „Left: This Charlie Chaplin has never been

      seen on the screen.“
