„But four days older than Germany‘s Adolph Hitler“
Editorial content. „Happy Birthday to You
A toast to Charlot of the past and to Chaplin,
personage of today, marking the fifty-year run of a great
performance
The man whom the public never forgets – the unassuming,
gray-haired Chaplin. English-born, he started stage work
at twelve, toured in vaudeville; then, in 1913, entered the film
industry. His private life made headlines: his two marriages,
to Mildred Harris in 1918 and to Lita Grey in 1924; the birth of two
sons; his divorces – yet to the American public he remained
primarily the Tramp of the baggy trousers and soulful eyes. After
eight years of inactivity, he produced, in 1936, Modern Times,
found the public as Chaplin-conscious as ever and is now busy,
on his fiftieth birthday, with production of a political satire,
The Dictator. Interesting commentary on this newest effort is that Chaplin is but four days older than Germany‘s Adolph Hitler.“
