Charlie Chaplin
Charlie Chaplin (1889–1977) was a British comic actor, filmmaker, and composer widely regarded as one of the most important figures in motion-picture history and the greatest comic artist of the silent era. Born into poverty in London, he rose from a difficult childhood in workhouses to become a global icon through his recurring screen persona, the Little Tramp, a lovable underdog characterized by his battered derby, oversized clothes, and bamboo cane.
