Apparently, when Geraldine Chaplin first saw RDJ perform as her father, she was so awestruck by the accuracy of his performance that she was unable to speak for several minutes
I like when Geraldine Chaplin said that her father would be horrified to see someone making a movie about him. If he were still alive when making this move, he would have directed it himself 😂
@@dan-fo8qrthat was the style of the era, chaplain and Benny Hill performed large and over exaggerated movements to use the means of film without sound. They played up a character
Why didn't Robert Downey Jr. get an Oscar for this performance? I think he did catch the essence of Chaplin and that has to be tough to do. And he did extensive research to make himself a better Chaplin too! UGH!
@@deb-1558 Al Pacino’s win that year was really just a legacy Oscar kinda like Leo’s win for Revenant or Whoopi’s Goldberg’s win in Ghost. They felt more like a “sorry you didn’t win earlier heres one to make it up to you.” All great performances but not worthy of Oscar wins. RDJ deserved the win that year
I first saw this movie a few years ago when I was taking a Film lecture course. When my professor first told us that Robert Downey Jr. played the role of Charlie Chaplin I thought that it was really weird (and it got even weirder when he said that they wanted Michael Jackson before him). Then when the movie started and ESPECIALLY when we got to this part it made perfect sense. He really did a lot of work to fully capture the essence of Chaplin both on the screen and off and I was fully satisfied by this movie.
I love how in this movie when they showed clips of Chaplin’s films they didn’t need to recreate any, they just literally gave us the original footage which was awesome imo
You must be a millennial or Gen Z. I am Gen X. Robert Downey Jr and I are around the same age. I grew up with his first movies. Remembered when he made this film. I was not sure if he could handle it because if his drug history. I was worried he was going to get canned from the film. He made it through and then some.
*To answer all the "Why didn't RDJ win an Oscar for this?" questions...it's because the Academy had to give Al Pacino his long-overdue makeup Oscar for Scent of a Woman.*
the real Charlie Chaplin never was in a film with a wedding party, but one film, The Adventurer does involve Chaplin as a guest at a house party and it does have a chase scene and he uses the lamp shade gag.
The first time Chaplin ever wore the Tramp costume was in "Mabel's Strange Predicament" sometime between Jan. 10th to 20th, 1914. It was his 2nd film ever! The film begins in a hotel lobby actually. I am surprised the 1992 film didn't replicate that. ( it was actually the 3rd Chaplin film released by Keystone Studios. The first time audiences would see the Tramp character would have been in "Kid Auto Races at Venice, Cal." which was released 2 days before on Feb. 7th, 1914)
when the wedding party is running up the stairs, after they reach the second landing, they start down the stairs instead of up. If you look closely. It is a movie set after all.. of a movie set.
He was still trying to get the smell of heroin out of the furniture if you know what I mean, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences somewhat frowns on that. He'll get his later on..
@Sandhidi that was the year that Al Pacino won Best Actor for "Scent of a Woman." Clint Eastwood also was nominated for "Unforgiven." Like many other fine performances, Downey's lost out to another actor's.

As a big Chaplin fan all I can say is... Damn! RD Jr. nailed that role.
I'm a big Chaplin fan too and I respectfully disagree. I also thought their grossly inaccurate portrayal of Mabel Normand was disgraceful
@@califtom how was rdj's portray bad tho?
Impeccable

Because the real Chaplin was a nonce....a lot of the actors/directors/producers were back then.....in fact now as well
Because that year (1992), nobody got over Al Pacino (Scent of a woman)
Cuz Al Pacino got it for Scent of a Woman but his performance was outstanding too. It was a close call between these 2 actors

RDJ studied Chaplin like crazy for this film and it shows!
"What is he putting on? A suit of armor?"
*Back in Black starts playing in the background*
"What is he putting on? A suit of armor? "
7 years to late but I was like wait what? Strongly foreshadowing
that's called foreshadowing....
I thought the same thing the very first time I watched this!
If he only knew the iconic character he was creating
That tripped me out so hard
0:52 "what's he putting on? Asuit of armor?" foreshadowing
He is IRON MAN
Robert is absolutely amazing in this movie
Yes he is
He even looks like Chaplin!

One of the greatest actors of our time
The greatest.
I must admit Downey is one talented guy! Bravo for this performance
Forget Iron Man. This is RDJ's peak performance.
Nah, it's Kirk Lazarus as Lincoln Osiris.
Agreed!
And in 30 years they would become Tony Stark and Aunt May :-)
More like 20.
YEAH BABY
Never realized that bride was Mabel Normand. Was she..?
"What is he putting on a suit of armor?"
Buddy, you have no idea...
Robert Downey jr. nailed it! He became Chaplin, bravo!!
0:52 What's he putting on, a suit of armour? Prediction at its best :)
0:52 after 16 years later, he did put a suit of armor......
I love how in this movie when they showed clips of Chaplin’s films they didn’t need to recreate any, they just literally gave us the original footage which was awesome imo
They did so because Downey Jr.’s performance was so good that they believed that the audience wouldn’t tell the difference between him and Chaplin.
They're referring to the first iron man, in 2008. 16 years.
Lol he looks exactly like him and he even captured chaplin's goofy smile... I say he did he goodjob
Loved this movie. RDJ's best movie pre-Iron Man as far as I'm concerned.
See Peter, Mr. Stark was already flirting with Aunt May a long time ago.
Wouldn’t be the last time either. They would go on to have a little trust in Italy!
If you wanted to know, they are recreating "The Adventurer" from 1917. It's really good :)
thankyou
two years later: faith and peter
several years later: aunt may and tony stark
his best performance as an actor...a memorable film...superb acting
What a legend
He's amazing
GREAT BECOMING CHAPLIN (1992 ) FILM - CHAPLIN'S FIRST SCENE !!!
Yeah that's...uncannily accurate.
Didn’t RDJ come out of rehab before this role as well??? What an incredible story from both actors!
No. The rehab came years later in the late 90s. He was still using drugs regularly during Chaplin.
0:52 he predicted the future~
BOBBY IS A GENIUS!
0:51 "what's he puttin on? A suit of armor?"
You guys just don't know yet. The armor put themselves on him
2:30. Tony stark meets aunt May for the first time!
Fun Fact: Johnny Depp nearly had this role but thought Robert looked more like him and did it better 😊
Now I wonder what johnny depp thinks about robert downey jr. as charlie chaplin.
@@jswatch9270 In Johnny's 2007 biography he said he's glad Robert had the role as he did an amazing job and he wouldn't have done as good good.
@@deb-1558 is there a video of it?
@@jswatch9270 No this is what I've read in his biography
@@deb-1558 ok, Well I wish there's a video of it.
:55 iron man reference XD
Cannibalkorntallica123 and this was made before Iron Man!!
Cannibalkorntallica123 what's the reference
Red is my favorite color "what's he putting on? A suit of armor?", RDJ plays Ironman...a man in a suit of armor
Deebo Molina oh ok it's just that he put it too late
0:50
The scene that made me truly fall in love with cinema
The hat choses the actor, Mr. Chaplin.
This scene is from 'The Adventurer', and is one of my favorite Charlie Chaplin films. 😊 Robert did a great job on it.
I never knew this movie existed, nor did I have any idea Robert Downey Jr played Chaplin. Gonna watch this now.
You must be a millennial or Gen Z. I am Gen X. Robert Downey Jr and I are around the same age. I grew up with his first movies. Remembered when he made this film. I was not sure if he could handle it because if his drug history. I was worried he was going to get canned from the film. He made it through and then some.
There needs to be more movies nowadays about the making of silent films like I would love to see one based on lon chaney
Try Man of 1,00 faces. Really great bio pic on Chaney.
Tony Stark and Aunt May 30 years agos since Iron Man and Spider-Man

Downey won the UK Oscar equivalent British Academy BAFTA
Aaaaaah! Iron Man !!! I see what u did there;D
Kudos to the director for realizing he had something special happening and rolled with it.
Iron Chaplin.
When he was walking away, getting the walk down, damn that hit home for some reason
Charlie Chaplin copied the walk from a guy in his old neighborhood.
My sides.
All of my sides.
Every single one.
What's he putting on a suit of armor?🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Boy little did they know.
I'd love to see The Tramp defeat Thanos by accidentally stealing the infinite stones he thought were nuggets of gold from klondike
@0:50 Proof that Hollywood has its movies planned waaayyyy before they're even released to the public
Hugh Mann every other comment is about that...
Still better than Deadpool.
Bought this movie around year 2000. I swear I watch it about once a month.
When I saw that, I was amazed how Silent Movies were filmed where the director gave the actors and actresses verbal-directions in the old days.
What is that scene of films belongs to?
I mean the real film of chaplin, what was it?
He won the UK Oscar equivalent British Academy BAFTA
Dan Akroid makes anything look old.
Its the movie about life of Chaplin.
Somebody can say whats the name of movie they made about this scene?
esse aqui ua-cam.com/video/-h2Xjm--C0o/v-deo.html

本作では放浪者チャーリーのデビュー作がメイベルの結婚騒動となっていますが実際はメイベルの窮地がデビュー作です。しかし前作のヴェニスの子供自動車競走でも披露していて長く論争がありましたがカメラマンの証言で窮地がデビュー作となりました。電灯に化けるのは移籍後の短編終了作チャップリンの冒険のラストの追いかけの流用です。本当のデビュー作成功争いではシルクハットにどじょう髭、片眼鏡の調子のいい悪党でチャップリンにとっては不本意だったそうです。
Great..
What is the name of the film they are shooting there?

"Chaplin" 1992
Unless you mean the film they were filming inside the film then I have no clue, sorry. :/

これはあのチャーリーでキーストン時代の放浪者誕生のシーンです。撮影の映画は現実にありませんが多分メーベルの結婚騒動でしょう。別の会社のチャップリンの冒険の電球に化けるギャグも入れられています。
when the wedding party is running up the stairs, after they reach the second landing, they start down the stairs instead of up. If you look closely. It is a movie set after all.. of a movie set.

Why waste your time watching this film? Watch "Sunnyside", "The Kid", "The Idle Class", "City Lights" and "Modern Times". You'll enjoy them more
