Charles Spencer Chaplin was born April 16, 1889, in London, England, to talented parents who both excelled in the creative arts. Charlie inherited his parents' ability to sing and act, but he later extended his list of talents to writing, dance, production, and even sports. By the tender age of ten, Chaplin lost his father and was forced to care for his ill mother. By the age of fourteen, Chaplin felt the compelling itch of show business and he plunged into it head first. It was at this early age that Charlie joined a group of performers know as "The Eight Lancashire Lads." The spotlight suited Chaplin well, and he quickly became known for his exceptional tap dancing skills. This debut venture in the performing arts paved his way for a career in vaudeville entertainment. Charlie joined a comedy troupe that toured the United States, which swiftly became a popular favorite with American audiences. The next thing Chaplin knew, he was signing a profitable motion picture contract that would later launch him to unprecedented heights of fame and celebrity.

The Best Of Charlie Chaplin Video
The Best of Charlie Chaplin video. Have only watched one of the seven DVDs and I hopethe rest of them have a lot more variety in his comic capers .I found that his antics are a little monotonous and repetitious .At the same time , the comedy of the time was excellent butI think it's a little dated for the 21st Century .

I was really disappointed. It happens always when somebody else decides what “The best” is of someone’s career, and what to put aside. Chaplin was a genius and for me, not remembering the titles of his best films, I expected to see really the best. Don’t waste your money. The DVD doesn’t present the best of Chaplin.My rating is for the poor choice made and titled “The best”, not for the geniality of Chaplin that created so many unforgettable comedies. Just you have to know the titles to buy really the best of his works. I will make more meticulous research next time, to buy exactly “The best”.

As good as it gets
I love Charlie Chaplin so I love this set. The images and sound are clear enough, considering how long ago these films were made. I was a bit surprised that Modern Times isn't included, seeing as it's definitely one of The Best of Charlie Chaplin, but this set is packed with good, funny, insightful, entertaining Chaplin films.

He broke the mold...
This obviously talented and unique man certainly falls in the category of "one of a kind." He is the true poster-child for conveying body language in its purest form. His flawless antics were dynamic down to the smallest detail. Thank you, Mr. Chaplin.Quality of DVDs very good.
