Charles Chaplin[1]

CHARLES CHAPLIN’S BIOGRAPHY I was born in London in April 16 th 1889 and I died in December 25 th 1997. I was born with talents in art and comic. I have abilities like acting, writing, directing, producing films and composing. If I had not done almost 90 sound and mute films I wouldn’t have won an Oscar award. I have a los of experience in acting and producing films because I made ones of the famous characters of the times, he calls “The tramp” or “Charlot” in Spanish, gentlemen with tight suits and a particular oscillating way of walk. My mother was a theater actress but she was schizophrenic, she was going to enjoy my success but she couldn´t because she had mental problems and she had to intern in a sanatorium. My father was an alcoholic and died when I was 12 years old. If my mother hadn’t been an actress I might not have been a successful actor. I never thought I would make that “The trump” speaks in my films but in the lasted film the producers talked me out of it. I was going to stay in USA but I couldn’t because de American Activities Committee said that I was a communist because I made a film called “The great dictator” and I was reported of USA. I should have gone to testify about the charges I wouldn’t have been exiled. When I was old, USA gave me the permission to come back and receive the Oscar award best year film, a few years later I died in Switzerland in my mansion while I was sleeping at my 88 years old.
