Uni t 3 A MASTER O F NON VERBAL H UMO UR As Victor H ugo once said, “Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face”, and up to now nobody has been able to do this beter than Charli e Chapli n. H e bri ghtened the l ives of Am ericans and Bri ti sh through two worl d wars and the hard years i n between. H e m ade peopl e laugh at a ti m e when they felt depressed, so they coul d feel m ore content wi th thei r li ves. Not that Charlie’s own life was easy! H e was born in a poor famil y in 1889. H is parents were both poor m usi c hal perform ers. You m ay fi nd i t astoni shi ng that Charli e was taught to si ng as soon as he coul d speak and dance as soon as he coul d walk. Such traini ng was m on i n acti ng fam il es at that tim e, especi al ly when the fam il y i ne was often uncertai n. Unfortunatel y hi s father di ed, l eavi ng the fam il y even worse off, so Charl i e spent hi s chil dhood l ooki ng after his si ck m other and hi s brother. By hi s teens, Charli e had, through his hum our, be e one of the m ost popular chil d actors i n Engl and. H e coul d mim e and act the fool doi ng ordi nary everyday tasks. N o one was ever bored watchi ng him hi s subtl e acting m ade everythi ng entertai ni ng. As ti me went by, he began maki ng fi lm s. H e grew m ore and more popul ar as hi s charm i ng character, the l i tl e tram p, becam e known throughout the worl d. The tram p, a poor, hom el ess m an wi th a m oustache, wore large trousers, wornout shoes and a sm al l round black hat. He wal ked around sti ffly carrying a wal ki ng sti ck. This character was a social fail ure but was l oved for hi s optim ism and determ inati on to over e al di fficul ti es. H e was the underdog who was kind even when others were unki nd to him . H ow di d the li ttl e tram p m ake a sad si tuation entertai ning? H ere is an exampl e from one of hi s m ost fam ous fi lm s, The Gol d Rush. It is the m i dni eenth century and gol d has just been di scovered i n Cal i forni a. Li ke so m any others, the li ttl e tram p and hi s friend have rushed there i n search of gol d, but wi thout success. Instead they are hi di ng i n a sm al l hut on the edge of a mountai n duri ng a snowstorm with nothi ng to eat. They are so hungry that they try boi li ng a pai r of l eather shoes for their di nner. Charli e fi rst pi cks out the l aces and eats them as i f they were spagheti. Then he cuts off the l eather top of the shoes as if i t were the fi nest steak. Fi nal ly he tri es cutti ng and chewi ng the bottom of the shoe. H e eats each m outhful wi th great enjoym ent. The acti ng i s so convi nci ng that i t m akes you bel i eve that i t i s one of the best m eal s he has ever tasted! Charli e Chapli n wrote, di rected and produced the fil ms the starred i n. In 1972 he was gi ven a special O scar for hi s outstanding work i n fi lm s. He li ved i n Engl and and the USA but spend his l ast years in Switzerl and, where he was buri ed i n 1977. H e i s loved and rem embered as a great actor who could inspire peopl e wi th great confi dence.
