卓别林的电影的英文简介

1. 卓别林英语介绍

1
Charlie Chaplin was born on April 16, 1889 in London. Her father was an entertainer and although not one of the big names, he was doing very well. Her mother Hannah was also an entertainer. A wonderful mimic, she had a sweet, charming voice. While they were by no means[1] rich, the music hall provided the Chaplins with a comfortabl
e living.

Unfortunately happy life didn't last long. Father's alcoholism was slowly, but surely destroying his marriage. Finally it ended in divorce, but Hannah was indomitable[2]. Without her, Charlie Chaplin would have become just one more child lost in the poverty of Victorian London. Somehow she not only managed to keep Charlie and his brother Syney clean and warm, clothed and fed but she conjured[3] little treats for them. She would sit at the window watching the passersby and guess at their characters from the way they looked and behaved, spinning tales to delight Charlie and Syney. Charlie took in her skills and went on using them all his life.

Charlie had always believed, even in the worst times, that had something special locked away inside him. He took his courage and went to see one of the top theatrical agents. With no experience at all, he was being offered the plum part[4] of Billy-- the pageboy in a new proction of "Sherlock Holmes". "Sherlock Holmes" opened on July 27, 1903 at the enormous "Pavilion Theatre" Charlie seemed to change overnight. It was as if he had found the thing he was meant to do.

It was, by now, 1908, Charlie was nineteen and he fell in love. Hetty Kelly was only fifteen. But her parents quashed[5] the the romance before it really begun-- but the memory of pretty Hetty stayed with Charlie all his life.

In 1910, when Karno set off on his yearly American tour, "One of the best pantomime[6] artists ever seen here." They had reached Philadelphia when a telegram arrived and he was being offered the chance to replace a star in the Keystone film company.

Cinema was born in the same year as Charlie thought people still believed it was a passing fad, and would never replace live shows. He was kept hanging about[7] for several weeks and he used the time to watch and to learn. He was determined to master this new medium. It offered him the chance of money and success -- and it would set him free from the unpredictability of live audience.

Charlie's first film, released in February 1914, was called "Making a living". Though it didn't satisfy Charlie, the public liked it. After that he had made ten films and he had learned a lot. The public loved him and distributors were demanding more and more Chaplin films. In an incredibly short time, Charlie had become a very important man in motion picture...

1889年4月16日查理·卓别林出生于伦敦。他父亲是一个演员，

虽然不是什么大人物，但也表现不俗。他母亲哈那是一位出色的喜剧演员，嗓音甜美动人。虽然谈不上富裕，可戏院的工作毕竟能使卓别林一家过上安逸的生活。

然而,幸福的生活并不长久，父亲对酒的嗜好缓慢地、但却毫无疑问地破坏着他的婚姻生活。这桩婚姻最终以离婚而宣告结束，但哈娜是不会轻易认输的。没有母亲，查理·卓别林充其量也只是维多利亚时期伦敦城里又一位穷困潦倒的儿童。她不仅想方设法让查理和弟弟西尼吃饱穿暖，保持干净整洁，而且动足脑筋变换方法，让他们过得欢乐愉快。她有时站在窗边，注视行人，通过行人的外表和举止猜测他们的性格，继而仿造故事，逗查理和西尼乐。查理继承了母亲的这点，而这也正是他一生用之不尽的财富。

即便在处境最为艰难的时刻，查理也始终坚信自己蕴藏着特殊的才能。他鼓足勇气，前往伦敦一家高级的戏院经理商应聘。竟获得新编的《歇洛克·福尔摩斯》剧中的小佣人比利一角。1903年7月27日《歇洛克·福尔摩斯》新剧在气势恢宏的帕维廉剧院首演，不久外出巡回演出。查理似乎一夜间发生了巨变，他好似找到了立志从事的事业。

1908年，19岁的查理堕入情网。他所钟情的海蒂·凯年仅十五。在他们之间的恋情处于萌芽状态时，海蒂的父母果断地终止了它的发展，然而，海蒂迷人的丰采竟使查理终生难忘。

1910年，卓别林所在的卡诺戏班赴美国作一年一度的巡回表演，他被认为是“当地美国人曾经见过的最为出类拔萃的哑剧表演艺术家之一。当他们抵达费城时，一纸电文接踵而至，把替换基石电影公司的一位明星的机遇赐于了他。

电影业是与查理同年诞生的。但当时人们普遍以为电影业充其量只昙花一现的时尚，它不可能替代现场真人表演。公司给他几周观摩的时间，他站在一旁，边观察、边学习，下定决心要驾驭这个新生事物。这个新兴的行业给他带来了赚钱和走向成功的机会，也将有助于他从对戏剧观众喧嚷起哄的担忧中解脱出来。

1914年2月，查理主演的处女片上映，影片取名《谋生》 尽管此片由于导演的无能而令查理大失所望，但观众还是喜爱这部片子的。之后他又拍了几部片，增长了不少学识。公众喜爱他，并且电影销售商索要越来越多的卓别林的片子，在极短的时间内，他成了电影界的重要人物

2. 卓别林的英文介绍

Charles Chaplin made Limelight at the most troubled period of his alt career. In the late 1940s, America¹s Cold War paranoia reached its peak, and Chaplin, as a foreigner with liberal and humanist sympathies, was a prime target for political witch-hunters. It did not help that he had recently been cited in an unseemly paternity suit. Pilloried as he was by the right-wing press and reactionary institutions like the American Legion, it seemed that America had turned against the man it had once idolised.

In this atmosphere, his 1947 film, Monsieur Verdoux, with its sardonic view of war, was attacked as being anti-American. Not surprisingly, then, in choosing his next subject he deliberately sought escape from disagreeable contemporary reality. He found it in bitter-sweet nostalgia for the world of his youth - the world of the London music halls at the opening of the 20th century, where he had first discovered his genius as an entertainer.

His story concerns a once-famous comedian who has lost the ability to command his audience. Chaplin said that he based the character on real-life stage personalities whom he had seen lose their gifts and their public - the American black-face comedian Frank Tinney (1878-1940) and the Spanish clown Marceline (1873-1927) with whom he had himself worked as a boy. Clearly he was also thinking of his own present bitter experience of a faithless public.

Chaplin spent more than two years writing Limelight. His method was remarkable, and unique in his work. As a preliminary, he wrote the story in the form of a full-length novel - some 100,000 words long and entitled "Footlights". The novel - never published or apparently even intended for publication - relates the story as it appears in the finished film, but in addition includes two separate biographies of Calvero and Terry, detailing their lives before the action of the film proper begins.

What makes these biographies so remarkable is that we can trace in them a great deal of extended autobiography, as Chaplin quite openly introces episodes from his own life and those of his parents. Just like Chaplin¹s own father, Calvero is devastated when he discovers his wife¹s infidelity and drifts into alcoholism. In the novel, Calvero even dies in the same hospital - St Thomas’ on the banks of the Thames - where Charles Chaplin Senior died in 1901 at the age of only 37.

The character of Terry, the young dancer, was equally clearly based on Chaplin’s mother, Hannah, though with reminiscences too of Chaplin’s first and never forgotten love, Hetty Kelly.

Claire Bloom, who plays Terry, remembered that in rehearsing her, Chaplin was always recalling gestures of his mother or Hetty, and the clothes they wore. With this strong underlay of nostalgia, Chaplin was at pains to evoke as accurately as possible the London he remembered from half a century before. In this he was helped by the great Russian-born designer, Eugene Lourié, who remodelled a set on the Paramount lot to look like a Victorian London street. A permanent setting of a theatre at RKO-Pathe was decorated to look like the Empire Theatre, London’s grandest music hall.

For the climactic scene Chaplin planned a ballet, in which Claire Bloom - not a dancer herself - was doubled by Melissa Hayden, a star of the New York City Ballet. Since the coming of sound films, Chaplin had always composed his own music scores, with the assistance of arrangers. Exceptionally, the music for the ballet - 25 minutes, though it was reced in the final film - had to be composed in advance. Chaplin was relieved when Melissa Hayden and her partner and fellow star André Eglevsky assured him that the music was suitable for choreography. The "Limelight theme" was to remain one of Chaplin’s best-loved compositions; and in 1972, twenty years after the film’s first release, he and his musical collaborators Ray Rasch and Larry Russell were awarded a belated Oscar for "Best Original Dramatic Score".

The beautiful, 20-year-old English stage actress Claire Bloom was chosen to play Terry after much soul-searching; and Chaplin’s son Sydney was given the secondary male role. Perhaps it was a comfort in these difficult days - and an element of the nostalgia - to have his family around him: four other children and his half-brother Wheeler Dryden also played in the film, and even his young wife Oona doubled for Claire Bloom in two brief shots. Though Chaplin’s public life was beset by problems, the shooting of Limelight at least was trouble-free and completed in 55 shooting days an exceptional standard of economy for Chaplin’s feature proctions. The premiere was, appropriately, held in London on 16 October 1952. In Chaplin¹s absence, open official hostility in America escalated to a point where he decided not to return to "that unhappy country". Thereafter he made his permanent residence in Europe. At that moment Chaplin believed that Limelight would be his last film. It was not: but if it had proved so, this exercise in nostalgia and family autobiography would have been a fitting conclusion to his career.

5. 有谁知道 卓别林 城市之光 英文简介，谢谢

《城市之光》影片简介: 本片为美国国家电影保护局指定典藏珍品。 这部影片描述了一个流浪汉爱上了一位双目失明的卖花姑娘，为了医好她的眼睛，流浪汉拼命赚钱，参加拳击比赛，在夜总会当打手等。 这是一部夹杂着闹闹吵吵的戏谑而最终抓住真爱的爱情喜剧。卓别林幽默的表演使他的形象更加深入人心。治好眼睛的卖花女，通过手的触摸而明白了流浪汉真面目的最后一幕，令人热泪盈眶。 本片也是查理·卓别林的最后一部默片作品，是他演艺事业中最高的艺术成就，片中充满了淡淡的哀愁，但是卓别林则细腻、直率又幽默的肢体语言，巧妙的将其平衡。片中，小流浪汉与一个百万富翁酒鬼之间的友谊，为此片增添了不少笑料，但是津津乐道的代表片段，还是片中的—场拳击赛，与在餐厅中的一场疯狂的舞蹈。 这部影片更被影迷们誉为“遗珠之憾”，因为当年的奥斯卡发现“沉默已不再是金”，默剧的时代已经过去，有声电影当道，但是卓别林在片中却始终一语不发，因此该片在奥斯卡上遭到冷遇。不过，如今的美国国家电影保护局已经将《城市之光》列入典藏电影目录中，但那些同一年出品并获得奥斯卡提名的影片，却没有一部列入典藏目录。这样子看来，小个子卓别林还是获得了最后的胜利！

1889年4月16日查理·卓别林出生于伦敦。 编辑本段|回到顶部 生平与创作: 在电影史上靠拍悲剧成为大师的人数不胜数，但靠喜剧片成为大师的人却是少之又少，这足以证明喜剧是一门多么难的艺术，喜剧要让人发笑的同时还要给人强烈的震撼，这比悲剧要难上一百倍。但卓别林做到了，百年来只此一人。脚登大皮鞋、手拿细手杖，迈着企鹅步的流浪汉形象，给一代又一代的观众带来了无尽的欢笑。这欢笑背后隐藏着人生的孤独与凄凉。这套DVD收录了卓别林10部长片，加上两张短片集锦，代表了卓别林一生最主要的成就，最令人高兴的是，其中最重要的电影如《城市之光》《淘金记》《摩登时代》等都是数码修复版，画质比原来清晰了不少，作为收藏是上佳的选择。 头戴一顶大礼帽，脚登一双尖头鞋，鼻子下留着一撮乌黑的小胡子，紧绷的上衣与肥大的裤子别扭地穿在身上，手里舞着一只手杖，鸭子般地出现银幕上——这就是卓别林为我们创造的绅士流浪汉形象。查理·卓别林是好莱坞默片时代的巨星，他和他所创造的夏尔洛形象一起被人们永远铭记。无论是流浪汉夏尔洛的善良、风趣、不幸，还是大独裁者的刚愎自用、自高自大，这些都成了世界电影史上的经典造型。 卓别林1889年4月16日生于英国伦敦，父亲和母亲都游艺场的歌唱演员。 1岁时父母分居，幼年卓别林便随母亲四处周游，并登台表演。 5岁时，因母亲嗓子沙哑，结束了演出生涯，卓别林遂独自登台从艺。 6岁时父亲去世，母亲病倒，卓别林与同母异父的哥哥流浪街头卖艺、乞讨，一度被送进孤儿院。后来两兄弟在游艺场和巡回剧团里演唱、跳舞和干各种杂活。 1913年，卓别林随卡尔诺哑剧团去美国巡回演出，被一位电影公司的制片人兼导演看中，签订了为期1年、周薪150美元的合同，从此，卓别林开始了他漫长的电影生涯。 1914年1月，卓别林拍摄了第1部影片《谋生》。同年2月18日，流浪汉夏尔洛的形象首次在喜剧电影《阵雨之间》里出现，这一形象后来就成为卓别林电影的主要银幕造型。 1年后，卓别林在美国成了被人们广泛热爱的演员。 1915年，卓别林的《流浪汉》等影片获得了巨大成功，卓别林也身价倍增。当他转投其他电影公司时，年薪已高达67万美元。 1917年，卓别林与米尔德丽德·哈丽斯结婚。 1924年两人离异后，卓别林与丽塔·格雷结为夫妻，并生有两个儿子。 1932年，卓别林又结了3次婚，新娘是宝莲·高黛。 卓别林从1919年开始独立制片，一生共拍摄了80多部喜剧影片，如《淘金记》（1925年）《城市之光》（1931年）《摩登时代》（1936年）《大独裁者》（1940年） 《凡尔杜先生》（1947年）《舞台生涯》（1952年）等。这些影片不仅在美国，而且也在世界各地引起了观众浓厚的兴趣。卓别林电影成了从20年代至50年代美国戏剧电影的最成功的代表，也成了那个时代电影的一种标志。 在第二次世界大战开始以前的1938年，卓别林开始筹划代名“七号”的工程，即后来拍摄完成的讽刺希特勒法西斯主义的电影《大独裁者》。当时，英、美当局都害怕这部影片会引起麻烦，从而对卓别林施加了种种压力，各地的纳粹组织也威胁卓别林。但卓别林无所畏惧，仍然坚持拍摄。二战全面爆发后，这部影片在世界引起了轰动。 卓别林的家庭生活经历了许多变化。 1942年，他与已经共同生活了10年的第3个妻子宝莲离婚后，一个曾与卓别林相好的年轻女性声称已经有了卓别林的孩子。这使卓别林卷进了桃色事件中。直到上了法庭，他的名誉才得到澄清。后来，54岁的卓别林与曾经获得过诺贝尔文学奖的著名戏剧大师尤金·奥尼尔的女儿、年仅18岁的乌娜·奥尼尔结婚，尽管这桩婚姻受到了新娘父亲的反对。 Edit this paragraph|Back to top Life and Creation: Tragedy in the history of cinema by making a master of countless people, but by a master of comedy is very few people, it proves how difficult comedy is an art of comedy to make people laugh while also giving strong shock, which is harder than tragedy on a hundred times.

然而,幸福的生活并不长久，父亲对酒的嗜好缓慢地、但却毫无疑问地破坏着他的婚姻生活。这桩婚姻最终以离婚而宣告结束，但哈娜是不会轻易认输的。没有母亲，查理·卓别林充其量也只是维多利亚时期伦敦城里又一位穷困潦倒的儿童。她不仅想方设法让查理和弟弟西尼吃饱穿暖，保持干净整洁，而且动足脑筋变换方法，让他们过得欢乐愉快。她有时站在窗边，注视行人，通过行人的外表和举止猜测他们的性格，继而仿造故事，逗查理和西尼乐。查理继承了母亲的这点，而这也正是他一生用之不尽的财富。

Charlie Chaplin(16 April 1889 – 25 December 1977) was an English comic actor and film director of the silent film era who became one of the best-known film stars in the world before the end of the First World War. Chaplin used mime, slapstick and other visual comedy routines, and continued well into the era of the talkies, though his films decreased in frequency from the end of the 1920s. His most famous role was that of The Tramp, which he first played in the Keystone comedy Kid Auto Races at Venice in 1914. From the April 1914 one-reeler Twenty Minutes of Love onwards he was writing and directing most of his films, by 1916 he was also procing, and from 1918 composing the music.

Chaplin was one of the most creative and influential personalities of the silent-film era. He was influenced by his predecessor, the French silent movie comedian Max Linder, to whom he dedicated one of his films. His working life in entertainment spanned over 75 years, from the Victorian stage and the Music Hall in the United Kingdom as a child performer, until close to his death at the age of 88. His high-profile public and private life encompassed both alation and controversy. Chaplin's identification with the left ultimately forced him to resettle in Europe ring the McCarthy era in the early 1950s.

In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Chaplin the 10th greatest male screen legend of all time. In 2008, Martin Sieff, in a review of the book Chaplin: A Life, wrote: "Chaplin was not just 'big', he was gigantic. In 1915, he burst onto a war-torn world bringing it the gift of comedy, laughter and relief while it was tearing itself apart through the First World War. Over the next 25 years, through the Great Depression and the rise of Hitler, he stayed on the job. It is doubtful any indivial has ever given more entertainment, pleasure and relief to so many human beings when they needed it the most". George Bernard Shaw called Chaplin "the only genius to come out of the movie instry".
