CHAPLIN IS ALIVE AND WELL!!


        Probably a speech from a movie that has more relevance today than when it was written. I can't see a modern big time movie maker allowing such a powerful piece onto the mainstream movie circuit. Charlie wrote the speech himself and it took him many hours of re-writing until he was satisfied that it said what he intended. I love the fact that the film in which Chaplin made the speech was made about 70/80 years ago but has been married to images of today. An excellent piece of work.
