Charlie Chaplin - Limelight (1952)

En savoir plus

a young dancer wants to know if the white-haired gentleman who saved her life is calvero, the great music hall comedian. "i was", the gent replies.
charlie chaplin's "limelight" is a glimmering homage to what was, a proud lood at a bygone entertainment era and a bittersweet tale of an artist passing the torch to a new generation. chaplin portrays calvero (the "tramp comedian" per an old theatrical poster in his room), who rescues a distraught ballerina (claire bloom) from suicide and mentors her to success. among the film's comedy highlights is a musical routine that's anything but routine in the hands of legend chaplin and stone-faced buster keaton. the extraordinary score by chaplin, raymond rasch and larry russell earned the screen legend his only competitive oscar.
