I was born at eight o'clock in the evening on April 16, 1889, in London, in the Walworth area, on East Lane.
It's hard to believe that today anyone doesn't know where and when a boy named Charlie was born, who was destined to become great. But in 1964, when his autobiography first came to light, this information was a true revelation - until then, no one knew for sure where and when the Legend was born. And this is far from the last revelation that Chaplin shares on the pages of this book.
The life of the legendary maestro was filled with amazing events. He studied little in school and caught up on his own. By pure chance, he entered cinema and became famous around the world in just a few years. He introduced many new faces to the world and gifted several iconic films. How did he achieve this? On the pages of this autobiography, you can follow the adventures of a man who fought, survived, and experimented. Charlie Chaplin managed to soar to the orbit of unprecedented success and stay there for many years, and he is ready to share this story with the reader. He will talk about his memories, experiences, and reflections - about everything that helped him along the way. At the same time, Chaplin does not feel sorry for himself - he laughs and pokes fun at himself, trying to amuse the world even from the pages of the book. Surrender to his charm, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of old Hollywood, and learn the story of a true Legend from the first hand!
