I like the movie. Brando and Loren played it well. I don't know that Chaplin had so much problems with Brando. Despite the fact is that the movie will be still a movie with beautiful memories of my life with my family. Thank you, Mr. Chaplin. And thank you for this video.😊
On the contrary,I Have heard in that time that Brando will accept to call all the numbers of the consult book if chaplin asked him that!!!
Good Job mate.Keep up the good work!
Thanks. More to come!
Love the movie.❤❤❤Loren looked ravishing.
I really enjoyed this documentary. It was lovingly made. Chaplin did write another film but it was never made. You seem to have got most of the music set pieces in here. My favourite being Tango Natasha. Keep it up
He wanted to make a movie called "The Freak" with daughter Victoria as a winged girl, but she ran off and married a magician & formed Cirque Imaginaire with him. Did he write a script for it? Someone could make it.
@@johnpjones182 Yes. I believe the Chaplin family still hold the script in their archives. The dependable Epstein was enthusiastic about it but other more objective sources don't share this reverie
I've always wondered if the '90's Soul Asylum video "Just Like Anyone", featuring Claire Danes as a winged girl, was inspired by this premise.
@@johnpjones182 No idea but I don't think it'll get made. Chaplin without Chaplin generally disappoints
Thank you
If I was working in the fashion industry back in 1960s, I would be honored to work with Charlie Chaplin! That man was a genius! I LOVE ❤️ his movies and so does my husband!
Our nephew is even named Charlie after Charlie Chaplin!
Thanks for watching
Good work.
Thank you.
First video i ever made
Marlon Brandon is the greatest actor ever but still he was difficult to work with
He certainly wasn't the greatest actor in this film though
@@talcumpowder1000 He's great in "The Wild One", but otherwise I've never much cared for him.
@@johnpjones182 Yep. More seminal when younger. Not impressed with Last Tango or The Godfather. That was Pacino's film
He was brilliant
@@talcumpowder1000Yeah I think Brando was rather overrated in the Godfather
Tippi Hedren❤
In memorial, the good assignments are always welcome on the way
thanks, very kind
Chaplin was a gentle person you have really to have a much ego to have feud with him marlon was a good actor but he was rude and really a mean person in personal life
I made a good documentary on Marlon Brando too. ua-cam.com/video/YqMZYtNRXd4/v-deo.html
A Countess from Hongkong would have been a fitting swan song for a great film maker and comic genius--but Marlon Brando spoiled it. Brando as Ogden never evinced any attraction, sexual desire or affectionate feelings for Natascha. Even in the final scene, where Ogden dances with Natascha--it was evident, from the way Natascha looked at Ogden, that she was very much in love and happy dancing with him. Ogden/Brando was dancing with Natascha like a piece of wood--not a hint of love or joy or happiness, not even a subtle smile, and never did he look directly into the eyes of Natascha. Not only was Brando miscast as Ogden. He looked like he hated Sofia Loren. Brando at his worst as an actor. So, why did the perfectionist Chaplin cast Brando and put up with his frequent tardiness in reporting for the shootings? That is the question.
Thanks for watching
