Podcasts about Charlie Chaplin

durée : 00:08:42 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Albane Penaranda - En 1950, pour commémorer le 25e anniversaire de la disparition de Max Linder, Samy Simon reçoit René Jeanne, écrivain et historien du cinéma, pour évoquer la carrière et l'héritage de celui que Charlie Chaplin lui-même considérait comme son maître. - réalisation : Rafik Zénine

In dieser Episode widmen sich Anne und ihr Gast André mit "Der große Diktator" von Charlie Chaplin einem auch heute noch sehr wichtigen Klassiker der Filmgeschichte.

2. The Birth of The Tramp and Professional Confidence Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided Chaplin arrived in America with the Carno group between 1910 and 1913. Stan Laurel noted his prodigious talent and absolute professional self-confidence. In 1914, Chaplin joined Max Sennett's Keystone studio, where he quickly created the iconic Tramp costume from wardrobe pieces, deliberately seeking visual contradiction. He soon demanded and received control to direct his own highly successful pictures. Despite his fame and early unsuccessful marriages, he remained extraordinarily shy in private life. 1917

8. Later Films and the Importance of Sid Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided Chaplin's first European film, A King in New York (1957), suffered as he struggled with English union rules, highlighting his dependence on absolute creative autonomy. His final film, A Countess from Hong Kong (1967), was hampered by the casting of Marlon Brando, insisted upon by Universal. Brando proved mechanical and unsuited for the film's romantic rescue plot. Ultimately, Chaplin's half-brother, Sid, remained the indispensable cornerstone of his life, always ready to help or rescue him. 1936

7. Exile to Switzerland Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided In September 1952, Attorney General James McGranery revoked Chaplin's U.S. re-entry permit while Chaplin was sailing to London. Having committed no crime, Chaplin was enraged and chose not to return, relying on his wife, Una, and brother, Sydney, to liquidate his assets. He settled in Switzerland to reduce the political pressure. However, losing his comfortable, self-owned Los Angeles studio and the stimulating environment of America contributed to a creative decline, resulting in semi-retirement. 1931

6. Limelight and Keaton Collaboration Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided Chaplin based Limelight on an atmospheric novel about Edwardian theater. The film reflected his own life, allowing him to process grief over his inability to save his mother by repeatedly featuring the narrative of an older adult rescuing a helpless young woman. After a difficult search, he cast Claire Bloom in the lead role. A significant unscripted addition during production was a routine featuring Buster Keaton. The two comedy legends collaborated improvisationally, resulting in a sequence that Keaton was honored to perform. 1928

5. Monsieur Verdoux Flop and HUAC Persecution Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided Chaplin purchased the idea for Monsieur Verdoux from Orson Welles, but the 1947 film—a dark comedy about a serial killer—became his first commercial failure, released at an inopportune moment following World War II. Though the FBI had surveilled Chaplin and confirmed he was not a Communist, they sought to remove him due to his politics and what they deemed his "flamboyant sex life." HUAC avoided calling him to testify in order to maintain their narrative. Gossip columnist Hedda Hopper personally pursued a negative campaign against him, projecting her loathing of her ex-husband onto Chaplin. 1921

4. The Joan Barry Scandal and the Mann Act Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided After giving a political speech, Chaplin became involved with the unstable Joan Barry in 1942. She held him at gunpoint and later initiated a paternity suit. The FBI targeted Chaplin, prosecuting him unsuccessfully under the Mann Act. Although a blood test proved he was not the father, the jury found against him, forcing him to pay child support for eighteen years. Barry later blamed the FBI for instigating the case. 1921

3. Social Commentary, Goddard, and The Great Dictator Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided Chaplin's 1931–1932 world tour revealed global squalor, which drove his social commentary in Modern Times. The film's politics concerned the FBI, though Chaplin was extremely wealthy and privately mocked radical labels. He lived with Paulette Goddard for ten years, fabricating a marriage and sham divorce to aid her career. Chaplin self-financed all his major features, including The Great Dictator. He delayed making sound pictures because he believed the Tramp should not speak, thereby preserving his character's universality. 1918

1. Childhood Trauma and Theatrical Beginnings Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided The discussion focuses on Chaplin's traumatic Victorian childhood, particularly the haunting memory of receiving only an orange for Christmas at the Lambeth Workhouse. His father died of alcoholism, and his mother struggled with mental illness. Chaplin's brother, Sydney, took charge of young Charlie and eventually secured him a job with the famous Fred Carno comedy company, launching Chaplin's theatrical career. 1915

Stumfilmen kördes över av ljudet och blev en smal sak för cineaster. Joakim Silverdal tycker att det är dags att skriva ut tysta klassiker på recept. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Alla stjärnor kommer en gång att slockna. Det gäller världsrymdens himlakroppar, likaväl som himlen över Hollywood.I Billy Wilders Sunset Boulevard från 1950 drömmer den avdankade stumfilmsskådespelerskan Norma Desmond om en comeback som aldrig kommer. Hon har inte lyckats med något sen filmen fick ljud och krossade hennes karriär.Detsamma gäller hennes gamla vänner.I en scen sitter några finklädda figurer vid ett pokerbord. Vana cineaster känner direkt igen dem: ”det är ju Buster Keaton, Anna Q Nilsson och HB Warner”. Men filmens berättare beskriver dem som dunkla figurer från den tysta eran, som inget mer än vaxdockor i Norma Desmonds kabinett.Stumfilmen var stendöd, redan 1950, det är vad vi får med oss.Men jag har blivit mer och mer övertygad om att den ljudlösa filmkonsten nu, över 70 år senare, fortfarande har förmågan att välta vår verklighet.När min dotter var två år fick hon frågan av en förskollärare vad hon gillade att se på tv. Och då svarade hon, som om det vore det naturligaste i hela världen: Charlie Chaplin.Allt uppstod i ett ögonblick av panik - när Babblarna, Daniel Tiger och Bolibompadraken helt enkelt till slut fick det att rinna över. Vad annars går att gräva fram ur streamingmörkret?Titta där: den böjda käppen, de stora skorna och det kluriga leendet. Charlie Chaplin!Vi började trevande med långfilmen Cirkus. Jag trodde egentligen inte alls på den här idén, men snart märkte jag hur uppslukad hon var. Allt som behövdes var några enkla: “Vad tror du att gubben ska göra nu? Nämen vad hände, sprang han IN till lejonet?” och så sitter en tvååring och tar in ett svartvitt, filmhistoriskt mästerverk från 1920-talet, helt utan talade repliker eller ljudeffekter.Vi upptäckte snart att Chaplin är mer än den snubbelgubbe världen ofta vill göra honom till. Vi har haft många, långa samtal om vad som gör luffaren ledsen, varför han är ensam, varför han har så trasiga kläder.Det är sådant man hinner med när tillvaron tystnar. När det konstanta larmet av hysteriskt animerade barnprogram sätts på paus, om så bara för en liten stund.Men kanske är jag naiv. Med snart 100 år av ljudfilmer är väl ändå stumfilmen dömd till en tillvaro längst ut i vår mediala periferi.Någon som var rädd för det och såg på med avsky, när ljudet trädde in i filmkonsten, var Victor Klemperer.Han var en tysk filmälskare och språkvetare vars dagböcker från 30 och 40-talen är viktiga tidsdokument över nazismens påverkan på det tyska medvetandet.I hans filmdagbok “Ljus och skugga - 1929-1945” får läsaren vara med om hur nazi-propagandans mörker kastas över de tyska biograferna.Men för den som läser noggrant, är den även en spännande ögonvittnesskildring från en biobesökare som var med om skiftet från stumfilm till ljudfilm.För Victor Klemperer var INGEN vän av den tidiga ljudfilmen, om vi säger så.Det är med ett slags glödgat hat han beskriver hur patetiskt dåligt filmljudet var till en början.1929 skriver han: “Vi har nu mött ljudfilmen två gånger och tyckte båda gångerna att den var avskyvärd”.Han tycker att det låter förskräckligt, men ljudkvaliteten är något han förstår kommer bli bättre. Vad som inte kommer åtgärdas är att ljudfilmen utstrålar något konstlat, dött. Ett slags surrogat till stumfilmen.Han skriver att “Filmen MÅSTE vara en konstform med uttryck, liknande baletten, buren av musiken, annars blir den en vedervärdig död mekanism med ett ljud som dessutom skär sig”.Precis som min tvååring, blir han väldigt förtjust när han får se Charlie Chaplin i Stadens ljus. En stumfilm som med filmmusik och några enkla ljudeffekter hånar ljudfilmen. Som när Chaplins luffare sväljer en visselpipa och försöker sjunga, men allt som kommer ut är några visslingar. ”En välsignelse att det är en stumfilm, avskyvärt att musiken gnisslar lika illa som i radion”, skriver han.Och när man ser denna eras mästerverk är det svårt att inte hålla med honom.Hur berör inte ansiktena, när ljudet fattas? I En kvinnas martyrium, det kvävande kammarspelet om Jeanne D'Arc från 1928, kryper sig skådespelerskan Maria Falconettis uppgivna uttryck långsamt in under huden.De få textrutorna ger oss absolut kontext, men det är ögonen. Ögonen. De stora uttrycksfulla ögonen som vittnar om mänsklighetens grymheter. De är starkare än all dialog i världen.Den tittare som ger sig hän, sitter till slut bara och gråter.Men tiden sprang förbi, även Chaplin började göra ljudfilm och med tiden verkar till och med Victor Klemperers syn på filmljudet mildras.Redan 1932 måste han erkänna att Marlene Dietrich och Emil Jannings skådespeleri lyfts när han får höra deras röster i Blå Ängeln. ”Klangen i detta organ”, utbrister han och när han några år senare ser musikalfilmen “Broadways melodi” är han istället förtrollad av ljudet. ”Vi sitter hänförda till den sista bilden OCH tonen”, skriver han.Men den där kraften då? Som kan få en två-åring att 100 år senare sitta hänförd i en timme och tjugo minuter?Om Victor Klemperer fortfarande var med oss - och om han skulle känna det glödgade hatet mot ljudfilmen blossa upp igen - skulle han bara behöva plocka upp valfri webbläsare, söka upp sin favoritfilm och trycka på play.Nu är stora delar av stumfilmsskatterna från 20 och 30-talen digitaliserade och ofta har rättigheterna gått över till att bli allmän egendom. Så den som vill se, kan se, utan problem.Stumfilmens kvalitet i vår moderna samtid börjar inte med stumfilmen, den börjar med dig.För när inga ljud hörs, inga röster ljuder, är det vi tittare som får jobba. Att se stumfilm är att sitta längst fram på soffkanten, framåtlutad, redo att ta in.Då behöver stumfilmen inte bli ett museum, då kan den bli ett tempel. En plats före reflektion och förundran. En plats för lugn och verklig eftertanke.I den moderna människans rusande tillvaro, där stressen äter sig in i porerna, borde stumfilm kunna skrivas ut på recept.För när jag och mina barn vaggats in i tempot från en stumfilm, märker vi snart hur vårt medvetande ställts om.Ofta tar det några minuter, vi skruvar på oss, men sen är det som om världen långsamt börjar tippa och vi själva snubblar in i filmen. Precis som när Buster Keatons biografvaktmästare i Sherlock Jr kliver fram till filmduken och in i filmen för att själv blir sagans mästerdetektiv.Att se stumfilm kan bli som att finna det verkliga värdet i tystnaden. Något som inte handlar om frånvaro, utan om närvaro.När två-åringen nu blivit fyra och själv vill välja brukar det blir Frost, eller Lejonvakten på tvn. Men ibland, ibland är det Chaplinboxen som åker fram och vi hämtar lillebror, sätter oss längst fram på soffkuddarna, lutar oss in, tills vi ramlar, rakt ner i filmhistorien.Joakim Silverdalfilmkritiker och reporter på kulturredaktionenTre bästa stumfilmerna att se med dina barn:”Guldfeber” av Charlie Chaplin”Busters miljoner” av Buster Keaton”Upp genom luften” med Harold Lloyd (regi: Fred C.

Salve! This is a trailer for our bonus episode exclusive for ⁠paid subscribers⁠!Every episode is a different song. This is the song today:"O Bêbado e a Equilibrista" by Elis Regina; written by João Bosco and Aldir BlancThis is probably the most politically charged song in Brazil, released in the late 1970s as the military dictatorship began to crumble. The song was originally written as a tribute to Charlie Chaplin, who had just died. Still, with its lyrics full of symbolic attacks on the government, it became an informal anthem pledging for a law responsible for bringing back to the country the political activists exiled by the regime. The song is a symbol of this resistance, enhanced by the brilliant performance of Elis Regina. Due to its high volume of metaphors, we recommend listening to the episode and checking the lyrics translation, provided by our friend Steven Smith at his website Translationsmith.

Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with Paul Levine about his new novel, Midnight Burning.A physicist, a comic genius, and a city on the brink—Paul Levine joins us to unpack Midnight Burning, a high-velocity historical thriller that brings Albert Einstein and Charlie Chaplin into the crosshairs of a real fascist movement in 1937 Los Angeles. We open with a personal note, then dive into the craft and conscience behind turning buried history into a page-turner that feels startlingly current.Levine traces his path from Miami Herald reporter to trial lawyer to television writer, revealing how courtroom rigor and the writers' room taught him to build lean scenes and dialogue that pop. That muscle powers a story grounded in documented realities: the German-American Bund, the Silver Legion, Nazi bookstores in L.A., a Hollywood hit list, and a citizens' spy ring that gathered evidence without firing a shot. We talk about Georgia Ann Robinson, LAPD's first Black female officer, and the moral compromises of studios navigating German censors like Dr. George Gyssling. Along the way, Levine explains how he balances verifiable quotes and biographies with credible invention, keeping Einstein's dry humor and Chaplin's political courage intact while pushing them into danger that tests their wits and resolve.If you love smart historical thrillers, legal-sharp dialogue, or the hidden history of Los Angeles and Hollywood, you'll find much to savor in Midnight Burning.

This week on Crime Wave: In Midnight Burning, Paul Levine brings together an unlikely team—Albert Einstein, Charlie Chaplin, and LAPD's first Black female officer, Georgia Ann Robinson—to take on a deadly Nazi plot in 1937 Los Angeles. As fascist sympathizers scheme to assassinate Hollywood icons and spark insurrection, the trio races through the city's underbelly and into the mountains to stop a conspiracy poised to ignite the nation. What begins as a fight for democracy becomes a desperate, high stakes chase through corrupt power structures and hidden militia camps in the San Gabriel Mountains. And when they finally uncover what's been lurking in the shadows, the danger they face will force them to decide what price they are willing to pay…because sometimes the cost of silence is more than any one person can bear.

Chartwell, Kent: Zwei Meilen südlich von Westerham liegt ein Anwesen, dessen Wurzeln bis ins 14. Jahrhundert zurückreichen – Chartwell. Weltberühmt wurde es ab 1922, als Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill, Nobelpreisträger, Maler, Schriftsteller und der wohl bedeutendste britische Staatsmann des 20. Jahrhunderts, hier sein Zuhause fand. „Ein Tag fern von Chartwell ist ein verlorener Tag“, sagte Churchill – und tatsächlich war dieser Ort sein Rückzugsraum, sein Atelier und seine Denkfabrik zugleich. -- In dieser Folge nimmt Euch Podcast-Host Alexander-Klaus Stecher mit nach Chartwell, den privaten Lebensmittelpunkt des Mannes, der Großbritannien durch den Zweiten Weltkrieg führte und mit seinen Reden zum Symbol des Widerstands gegen Nazi-Deutschland wurde. Andrea vom National Trust öffnet für BRITPOD die Türen: Lady Churchills Wohnzimmer, das berühmte Arbeitszimmer, in dem seine großen Texte entstanden, und den ummauerten Garten, den Churchill eigenhändig Stein für Stein errichtete. -- Chartwell war für Churchill weit mehr als ein Wohnsitz. Hier malte er hunderte Landschaftsbilder, schrieb Bücher, empfing Persönlichkeiten wie Charlie Chaplin oder Albert Einstein und genoss das Familienleben mit Clementine und den Kindern. Legendär waren die Teestunden mit Dundee Cake, genauso wie die politischen Gespräche, bei denen Ideen reiften, die die Weltgeschichte prägten. -- Nach Churchills Tod 1965 ging Chartwell an den National Trust. Heute ist es Museum und Erinnerungsort, der die Atmosphäre der 1930er Jahre bewahrt und die private Seite eines Mannes zeigt, den die Welt vor allem als Kriegsheld kennt. Gerade im Jahr 2025 – 80 Jahre nach dem Victory in Europe Day – lädt Chartwell dazu ein, Churchill neu zu entdecken: als Staatsmann, Schriftsteller, Maler und Familienmensch.

Egon Wertheimer berichtete 1925 für die Altonaer Nachrichten aus London und ist in der heutigen Folge nicht zum ersten Mal zu Gast. Im September hatte er das Privileg, Charlie Chaplins neuesten Film „The Gold Rush“ zu sehen, noch bevor er in den deutschen Kinos anlief. Er bereitet in der Ausgabe vom 26. 9. das deutsche Publikum nicht nur auf einen großartigen Film vor, sondern reflektiert auch die Figur des „Tramps“, die Chaplin kreiert hat. Für Wertheimer ist sie weit über ihre Slapstick-Anfänge hinausgewachsen und verhandelt ähnlich große Konflikte und moralische Themen wie das Antike Drama. Was das für den anschließenden Besuch in einem Theater bedeutete, teilt uns Rosa Leu mit.

Dean Karayanis, sitting in for Derek Hunter, reflects on the murder of Charlie Kirk. The pundit class, despite this attack on one of our own, isn't seeing this as an attack on free speech or democracy. But it is. Regardless of the motivation, whenever someone who speaks out is slain, it's imperative that everyone condemn it. Instead, you have some Democrats and MSNBC commentators both-sidesing this, blaming the victim. The left ought to speak to its own base and the right to theirs. That, more than generalized statements of condemnation, will show that America is united in rejecting violence as a political tool. Also, a clip of the first time audiences heard Charlie Chaplin speak. His uplifting speech in "The Great Dictator" was a call to our common humanity and a call for us to fight for liberty, that is worth hearing at this moment.

The Genius and the Tramp Fight Fascists in 1930s Hollywood."Ingeniously pairs real-life friends Albert Einstein and Charlie Chaplin on a roller coaster ride to save America from a fascist threat within its borders." – Jacqueline Winspear, author of the Maisie Dobbs series.It's 1937 and clouds of war gather over Europe, and American fascists march at home. While the FBI chases suspected communists, Nazi agents plot an armed insurrection. When the world's two most famous men—Albert Einstein and Charlie Chaplin—uncover the scheme, which includes the assassination of Hollywood's biggest stars, they fight back with nothing but their ingenuity, raw courage, and the fierce resolve of Georgia Ann Robinson, LAPD's first Black female officer.A dangerous chase takes our heroes into the heart of darkness, a fascist encampment in the San Gabriel Mountains north of Los Angeles where a militia armed with machine guns plans its attack. Batten the hatches: it's brains versus brawn in an explosive, unforgettable finale.Praised by The New York Times for his "realistic, gritty, and fun" novels, Paul Levine delivers a wildly inventive thriller laced with humor and a larger-than-life cast, including Charles Lindbergh, Douglas Fairbanks, William Randolph Hearst, and Joseph Goebbels.Inspired by a true story.

Charlie Chaplin was a wanted man. Not just by moviegoing audiences that made him one of the biggest stars of the silent and talkie eras. And not just by governments who questioned his politics. He was nearly murdered by a jealous lover, and was likely the intended target of a homicide aboard the yacht of the wealthiest man in America. He survived numerous attempts on his life, only to be targeted by a cabal of Japanese assassins who wanted him dead. And when he did die, Charlie Chaplin remained in high demand. Just ask the guy who dug up his corpse and held it for ransom.

The second installment of Fresh Immigrants, Rotten Fascists focuses on Adenoid Hynkel - the familiar looking authoritarian played by Charlie Chaplin in THE GREAT DICTATOR. Of course, there's more to Chaplin's masterpiece than Hynkle's fascist antics, including a showstopper of an ending that remains as relevant today as it was in the middle of World War II.Thank you for checking this new project out, whether you are a long-time Contrarians fan or someone who's just trying to listen to people talking positively about immigrants and negatively about fascism.

Welcome BACK to Pennan, Scotland! The BIT Crew has the month off so we picked one of our MOST FAVORITESISTED episodes to replay for you. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we love hearing the sound of our own voices :-). We'll be back with new episodes starting in September! Pennan became famous in the 1980s for being used as one of the main locations for the film Local Hero. Film enthusiasts have come from all over the world to make a phone call in the red telephone box in the village.  Lesser known, perhaps, is Pennan's Seagull Competition. Sources vary on the purpose, rules, and outcomes of the annual event.  There is a whisper campaign that Dr. Who will be in attendance this year. In recent years, seagulls have become increasingly aggressive and have chased off the once-thriving mackerel (pronounced Mack-Ah-Rell) population to the more habitable coastal waters of Norway (home to Charlie Chaplin).  If you hang out at the phone booth or one of Pennan's many golf courses, you may bump into local bachelor Jake (or is it Jack)? For 2 euro, you can take a selfie with him in the phone box. Please enjoy three of the Pennan Podcast Network's delightful podcasts. How's That Work?: Hosted by Marcie Bonnet and Seafarin' Sequoia. They think they have cracked the code to how the local telephones work without lines. Where's Nessie? Nessie believer/host Dean welcomes Nessie Hunter/skeptic Don to determine whether Nessie inhabits the local bodies of water.  Where Are They (Those Fish)? Janine and Patty host the show. Something or someone is scaring Pennan's mackerel off, and they aren't returning. Janine has enlisted Patty to shepherd them back to Pennan if she has to swim in the sea to do so.  Sponsors include The BBC, Sam's Seagulls, Jody (Dr. Who's Companion), Jake's Fantasy Dates, and George, the forgetful and perpetually lost garbage guy!  DIRECTOR/CREATOR:  Billy Merritt Producer/Editor: Hill Kane CAST:  Dean Aisles (Himself) Konrad Andrew (Sam of Sam's Seagulls) Terry Armstrong (Support Player) Amber Bellsdale (Patty) Luke Bovard (Seafarin' Sequoia) Don Slovin (Himself) Jason Spiro (Jody, Dr. Who's trusted companion) Lisa Steckman (Marcie Bonnet) Thea Marie Thorkildsen (Jake/Jack) Katya Vasilaky (Janine) Flannery Wilson (George) Special appearance by BILLY MERRITT as Shamus.

La Suisse, une terre de refuge pour les célébrités. On ne compte plus le nombre de stars qui ont séjourné dans ce pays et celles qui y résident encore aujourd'hui. Les raisons de ces exils sont variées : fiscalité, climat, paysage, situation géographique, mais avant tout la tranquillité. La discrétion des Helvètes, valeur érigée en vertu convient très bien à ces résidents qui souffrent parfois de leur trop plein de notoriété. En 1952, c'est une star mondiale qui décide de poser sa canne et son chapeau dans le canton de Vaud. Charlie Chaplin vient de se voir retirer son visa de résident aux Etats-Unis pour cause de sympathie avec les communistes. La chasse aux sorcières menée par le sénateur McCarthy et le FBI d'Edgard Hoover à Hollywood propulsent l'artiste en tête d'affiche du dénigrement à la sauce guerre froide. Eugene, le fils de Chaplin, né en Suisse peu de temps après son arrivée, nous reçoit dans la maison familiale de Corsier-sur-Vevey, devenue musée en 2016. Olivia Baliguet est responsable de la communication du Chaplin's World, l'ancien maison des Chaplin devenue musée. https://www.chaplinsworld.com/
