He has been called 'arguably the single most important artist produced by the cinema, certainly its most extraordinary performer and probably still its most universal icon'.

For movie audiences, he was simply, Charlie Chaplin, who won their hearts and made them split their sides in laughter when he portrayed the Little Tramp, his most memorable iconic onscreen character in silent films. Chaplin wasn’t only the Little Tramp. He was a comic genius who produced, directed and wrote most of his filma, even later composing the music for them. He was the total film-maker.

This movie poster book captures the imagination and genius of one of the most important figures of the film industry, presenting, for the first time, more than 50 vintage movie posters in print. Each poster is presented in the highest possible quality. All are sharp and in full color. The book is divided into eight sections.
