Cast: Charlie Chaplin, Claire Bloom, Buster Keaton, Norman Lloyd
Synopsis:
A comedian in the autumn of his career and a ballet dancer with suicidal thoughts support each other through this difficult phase of their lives.
Review:
Chaplin's look at the fickleness of the theatrical life, as well as at his own declining star, famously unites him with his old rival Keaton and a bright young star that was Claire Bloom. It is an enchanting film, shot through with his characteristic meticulousness.
