Jack Lame He met a future wife when she was 13 years old. He actually married her when she was 16. That doesn’t fully take away from the squick factor, but at the time child marriage was still extremely prevalent around the world and 16 was probably not considered as bad as it is today. This is not a complete defense, just a recontextualization.
@@WalkwYah “Huh” what? There would be NO Harvey Weinstein without Charlie Chaplin. Not in terms of cinema, but in terms of RAPE. Chaplin invented the casting couch. It was well-known, even at the time. Chaplin’s “rival”, Buster Keaton, even once said that because of the size of Charlie’s member, the casting couch was Chaplin’s only way to actually lay a woman. Keaton, during the culture of the time, was known to NOT have that problem. Furthermore, Chaplin liked them YOUNG. Chaplin initially met his second wife when she was TWELVE YEARS OLD, before impregnating and marrying her at 15/16. Learning from that mistake, Chaplin married his 4th and final wife, Oona, mere weeks after she turned 18. They’d been acquainted for a year prior. He was 54 at the time. Chaplin was the OG Hollywood predator. This is a statement of fact. But, much like Michael Jackson, his influence and prolificacy were so outsized that nobody ACTUALLY cared that much. Minimal impact on legacy. Plus, for Chaplin, he’s got the added advantage of having done all of this nearly 100 years ago. Do I need to explain further?
Chaplin thanked everyone in his speech and said, “Oh, thank you so much. This is an emotional moment for me, and words seem so futile, so feeble. I can only say thank you for the honor of inviting me here. And you’re wonderful, sweet people. Thank you.”
I'm a Buster Keaton fan. I think for comedy/gags, Keaton was better. Chaplin pushed things farther into pathos and managed to move more successfully into the talking era. They both were masters of their crafts (comedy/filmmaking) and I wouldn't kick either of them off my screen, but it's a matter of taste, and I prefer Stone Face flavor over Little Tramp.
@@TheLongBlackCoat you left out pedophile and sexual deviant of epic proportions .....everyone makes the guy out to be a saint....great performer, yes...but a total scumbag...read about him...
You say that as if he had the option to utter a single word. The entire industry was silent, you dolt. Every single silent comedy film star such as Chaplin, Lloyd and Keaton made people laugh without "uttering a single word". That would be like saying "Mozart created the greatest art without making a single movie"
What a humble legend. The humanity that Chaplin brought to all his films is what makes them so transcendent. More filmmakers today should take a page out of his book.
I love the pure and sincere humility he has on his face. The fact that he doesn't accept the fact the he is the very embodiment of cinema makes him all the more great.
The longest standing ovation in Oscars history. The ovation went on for over 12 minutes for Mr Chaplin what an absolute incredible actor/writer/musician/composer/producer/director. There are no words for the bet ever actor in the history of movie making. He did it all without speaking which is incredible.
In 1914, people laughed when watching his films. 107 years later, people still laugh when watching his films. This man has went to hell and back and yet, he never failed to make us laugh. We all went through hell, but there are always some things put us up and one of those things are laughter. Thank you Sir Charles Chaplin for everything. RIP my good sir.
charlie chaplin wrote, directed, edited and produced all his films and co-founded united artists with mary pickford, douglas fairbanks and d w griffith. his worldwide persona, the tramp, was admire by many. charlie is beyond one of the greatest actors of all time. charlie’s humour made everyone laugh, and the media and the world tore him apart, accusing him of being a communist. like michael jackson (sorry for bringing another celebrity here) would say, the media and tabloids are terrible who loves tearing people apart.
@@Augustus24 he never slept with an underage girl, that’s what angered the FBI. Also back in the day, it wasn’t irregular for someone to get with somebody “underage”. My grandpa married my grandma when she was 16 and he was 19.
In my personal opinion, this award came much to late in his life, he deserved so much more from Hollywood, he literally paved the way, for the people applauding him!!
I just read his Wikipedia article and you’ll be happy to know that at the first academy awards ceremony in 1929 he received a “special award” for “versatility and genius”!
Charlie didnt want to initially come back to the US to accept the Oscar as he feared the reception towards him would be negative. It was his wife Oona, who convinced him to accept this honour. He was fearful that people would have forgotten him after all the years away from the screen and that his return to the US would be greeted with hostility. You only have to watch this video to see how humble and emotional he was by the audience's reaction to him. Charlie Chaplin was a genius and a true legend.
Charlie Chaplin was a pioneer who inspired the hundreds who came after him. Master of cinema long before the "talkies" and the greatest comic actor of all time. He was the champion of the underdogs on screen.
Fun fact: Charlie Chaplin got the longest standing ovation in history for this award! 12 whole minutes! Edit: this is referring to Oscar history, there seems to be some confusion

He thought they were going to boo him. He did not expect the 'new' stars at the time to stand up and applaud him. He did not know that his movies were still loved.
I never get tired of watching this clip. It brings me to tears each time. Just found out that it's the longest standing ovation in Oscar's history (he deserved every moment of it) Everyone in that audience knew they owed him a debt because he started it all. Watching him on film, it still fills you with wonder and awe, even one hundred years later. He was truly an extraordinary screen presence.
The fact that he only ever revived an honorary Oscar gives hope to all film makers today, espetially comedic, that don't have the best reputation with critics. I honestly think that of modern comedic film makers the one most likely to be remembered as the Chaplin of our era is Seth Rogen. If you're a film geek you'll probably disagree whole heartedly, but terms of modern comedic cinema, he parallels Chaplin.
Abby Phillips uhh no... first you have to understand that mr chaplin was given a special honorary award by the academy for "the circus" it preceded the "honorary oscar" in 72' by 40+ years. rather then take all 4 categories for best actor/director/writer/comedy picture, the academy removed him from the running and distinguised him as in a category all his own. "for versatility and genius in acting/writing/directing/producing" say that word again..."genius" sinkin in yet? the achievement of "the circus" in the annals of films at that time was inimitable and deserving of more prestige than his competition could compete with. likewise, the special honorary award in 29' is paramount to the honorary oscar 72' chaplin still received an accolade from the academy for a singular piece of work and a dubious oscar ONE year after the honorary in 1972 for his score in limelight. count 2 oscars. an honorary in 1972 and one in 73' for music plus the special honorary award given for the circus in 29'. "the circus" special award acknowledgement by the academy that ultimately surpassed his competiton was a validation of his genius and work. lets not forget it also was the very 1st academy awards. writer/director/actor/producer... things like this are rare for filmmakers and award ceremonies. not to mention it was unheard of at that time to receive multiple category nominations. and no, seth rogen compared to the master that was chaplin diminishes the wonderment/charm/mastery that that man was. you dont have to be a "film geek" and pass on more diminishment with that callous approach to this artform. the comparitive diminishment of one of the founding fathers of cinema by saying rogen parallels anything that man accomplished is laughable at best, and unmeritable at least. let me know when rogen composes/directs/produces/acts/writes his pictures and does it per film. every film. reinvents vaudeville to do stage work and has a silent film body of work in the mid 70's. starts a collaborative film company. all of this and add 50+ years in the industry, then... maybe... rogen can be held in the same breathe that was this man. you effectively compared a master to an apprentice. and p.s. the closest comparison to a "chaplin of our era" is woody allen. mr allen has "eras" under his belt. eras! aaaaand last but certainly not least, critics have NO say who wins the oscar. its peers who do the voting and "reputation with critics" means absolutely nothing. this isnt some golden globes foreign press voting structure. its peers. NOT critics/press/media who do the voting. TL:DR 1. chaplin has 3 awards from the academy of motion picture arts and sciences. 3! 2. rogen has yet to be proven as anything nearing chaplins genius. 3. "reputation with critics" means less than nothing concerning the academy awards or the AMPAS voting structure, let alone the honorary awards they bestow. its peers who cast the votes. know your history or youll be doomed to repeat it.
I had the honor of attending these 44th awarding of the Oscars--what a night it was. Something that occurred at this special presentation of Chaplin's honorary award that isn't shown in this video was, just after the gentleman finished introducing Chaplin onstage, Chaplin appeared from the wings on stage left (your right as you're looking). He was then serenaded by Johnny Mathis singing, "Smile" as he walked toward center stage. The audience erupted and stood on its feet….the ovation lasted twelve minutes (to this day, the longest in Oscar history) as Johnny sang the lyrics and, as I looked around, so many people were in tears, as was I. It truly was a magical evening and this video helped to bring back so many memories of that night. By the way, Chaplin's appearing at this Oscars presentation was his first visit to the United States in over 20 years! He was overwhelmed by the reception he received. While I don't agree with his political views, I do recognize him as being one of the major pinnacles in the history of film making. He was brilliant at it.
It's not for any single White European American to worry or inspect or judge or even to feel a bizarre disassociation towards any "One Person who chooses Socialism or Communism as their choice of belief or system" ...that is really their Freedom of choice if they are Happy in that system great for them! ... I envy a night like this and to have been able to set my eyes on " The Original unmatched, creator of Hollywood! the greatest comedian of the big screen, beautiful Charlie Chaplin!!" ..and as a member of sagaftra this video brought tears to my eyes here 2019. It was wrong for the industry and politicians to single him out and harm his fantastic artistry. You got to see him live in the flesh! It was fantastic and very sad at the same time...the great and beautiful Charlie Chaplin 💙💛💛💜 we love him and remember his precious life. And may I add Please! Charlie was my Sociialist brother! Or comrade' ..if you will'... And its disgusting what this "form of ideology = Corporate Democratic racist Dictatorship" is set out to destroy Socialism and it's people as in the bullish case and lies about Venezuela. Out of 10 million voters Nicolas Maduro won by a landslide! Receiving 7+ million votes by the " Indeginous Brown people of Venezuelans and they decided that they can not continue being attack by imperialistism and it's racist colonio like control now in 2019 ...these 5 politicians D. Trump, Mike Pompeo , John Bolton, Elliot Abrams and Mike Pence are very sick with a domination complex and can't wait to steal that oil. These men are evil.👹 .. who are now psychic-ing out the sleepy American public playing constant fear against us through the cheerleading media, those corrupt demons could give two sh'ts about humanity on this planet!
@@titusho2 Communism is evil. It is demonic to its core. Socialism, when allowed, always leads to Communism. While I admire Chaplin's filmmaking skills and talent, I abhored his political beliefs. Communism is diametrically opposed to the Judeo-Christian foundation upon which our nation, the United States, was founded. When Krushchev, after taking office after Stalin's death, revealed the atrocities to the world all that Stalin had propogated and involved himself in. Krushchev, too, participated in the horrific atrocities in the former USSR -- in fact, more deaths occurred under Stalin than did Hitler. Nevertheless, these revelations failed to have any affect upon Chaplin and, hopefully, have his views changed. Instead, when he left the USA to go live in Switzerland, he was living off royalties from his films made in the USA --- and he remained pro-Soviet to his death. What did the USSR do, in return, to show their "gratitude" to Chaplin? They opened a Chaplin museum in Moscow, and during Chaplin's paternity suit with Joan Berry, the Soviets launched a Chaplin festival and blamed all his troubles on the Trotskyites and the William Randolph Heart press. Chaplin and all the rest involved in the blacklist -- deserved to be blacklisted. They allowed themselves to be duped by Communist infiltration into Hollywood that began in the 1930's and continued right in to the '40's. They did it through "front groups" posing as humanitarian aid groups, what have you, that were led by registered Communists. Chaplin was involved with these groups, as were many others such as Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, James Cagney, Edward G Robinson, Lillian Hellman who later became a screen writer...hordes of back lot, stage workers, etc., were duped into this mess. But, Chaplin (and Lillian Hellman, among many) continued right along and supported whole heartedly the Soviet cause and control of America. Hollywood was one of the plum areas the Soviets sought control and influence in order to achieve their goals. Thankfully, they failed. By the mid 1950's, much of the Communist influence in Hollywood had come to a close. Today, however, it's rearing its ugly head again through the co-opting of liberals and progressives to their side, easily deluding them to believing that a socialist state is the ideal, utopian state. WHAT...A...LIE!!!
" You're wonderful, sweet people. " A giant among giants! It's difficult for people to understand how a person could deserve a 12 minute standing ovation. Just watch his films and you will know what a remarkable man he was to the world. ( There is a famous photo of Chaplin addressing a huge crowd in New York, 1918. He was adored! )
He also got the ovation because it was his first return to America since he was told he would never be allowed to return because Hoover and McCarthy and evil people like Hedda Hopper, did what those jerks did in that era; lie about people being Communist and trying to take over the country.
A beautiful moment… but… it breaks my heart to see, him being so so thankful… as if the Oscar could contribute to a legacy like Chaplins and as if the Hollywood community was in a position to honor him at all. He was the one who honored them by accepting their award and coming back to the US to accept the statue. Artistic genius and brave humanist. An asset to mankind. Hollywood is not even worthy of polishing his shoes.
Absolutely agree, the genuine expression of humble thankfullness on his face had me in tears, I only hope he came even close to realise how much he was appreciated.
I'm 61 . I remember watching this at about 13 years of age on TV. Every Christmas very early morning (about 7am)BBC2 used to put on a Charlie Chaplin movie, I used to watch with my dad as a little girl on the settee. Im on here now to look for a movie to watch on Christmas Morning as I have kept up the tradition as BBC2 stopped many many years ago putting them on. Thank you TH-cam. I have box set as well though.
CHARLIE CHAPLIN was a LEGEND CHARLIE CHAPLIN is a LEGEND CHARLIE CHAPLIN will be a LEGEND FOREVER And NO ONE can take his place. HIS contribution is unbeatable. SALUTE TO YOU SIR !
Legally Resisting Tyranny Because he wanted we are all the same and have the same, no rich and no poor. Only western world demonise communism and people are brainwashed how communism is bed because it was dangerous for elite and establishment. China communist country with the big GDP today.
He never "liked" Communism. He was one of the richest people in Hollywood.....why would he want to be a Communist? The truth is that he considered himself a universal "citizen of the world" and the whole commie thing started during World War II when he called for the USA to support Russia in their fight against the Nazis.
It was a witch hunt with movie stars, directors and writers all being unjustly blacklisted. They killed John Garfield. He had a heart attack at 38 from the stress of all the lies.
I'm french and I say,seeing this ovation:Everybody in the world can get up for Charlie Chaplin,a real human being and a prodigious,genious actor with only one universal character.Nobody has made it before him,and noboby will make it after him,as good as he made,for the humanity....For ever and above all Oscars!

brought me to tears he had a rough life! His childhood was horrible.. not a man of many words but wow his was so powerful ! I bet his never imagined his life would become what it was he eventually found true love and had lots of children !
One must understand Charlie's life when watching this video! Betrayed by a country he loved, he was kicked out of the country. After thirty years, the US finally opened its doors back to him, and offered him this honorary award. If we go back farther, we can see his hopes and dreams as a young child enslaved to an orphanage. His mother in an asylum, his father an alcoholic. Charlie, against all the odds, rose up to become one of the Greats. I can't help but see Charlie's entire life swelling up in the form of tears... He did swell
“I always like walking in the rain, so no one can see me crying.”- Charlie Chaplin. This quote was from the greatest comedian. I can definitely relate the reason behind this saying.
You sure he loved America? This is a quote from him about the US:- Whether I re-entered that unhappy country or not was of little consequence to me. I would like to have told them that the sooner I was rid of that hate-beleaguered atmosphere the better, that I was fed up of America's insults and moral pomposity ... Don’t think he thought that highly of America dude. The US might have treated him better if he wasn’t English, which of course he was.
@@Theoriginalsparkythemagicpiano The context of the quote you gave came after a very vicious smear campaign from the US media and government, as well as the fact they had just cancelled his visa and made threats against his attempt at re-entry. Is he not entitled to a little bitterness about that?
Calvin Edwin "Cal" Ripken Jr. (born August 24, 1960), nicknamed "The Iron Man", is an American former baseball shortstop and third baseman who played 21 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Baltimore Orioles (1981-2001). His season highlight came on September 6, 1995, when Ripken surpased Lou Gehrig's 56-year-old record for consecutive games played (2,130 games). The crowd in the stands, the opposing players and all four umpires gave Ripken a standing ovation lasting more than 22 minutes, one of the longest standing ovations for any athlete. During the ovation, Ripken did a lap around the entire Camden Yards warning track to shake hands and give high-fives to the fans.
@@henrybrown596 I searched on Google and this is the part of a paragraph, "And there wasn’t a dry eye in the house when Jack Lemmon gave him his famous Little Tramp hat and cane." My question was in regards to the anchor, who gave such a polished speech. You are also right as JL did present him, but only the hat and the stick and not the Oscar. Such a man was CC, that he just saw the Oscar and proceeded to give his thanksgiving speech and immediately took the hat and the stick and did his trademark action of making the hat flip.

Most well deserved standing ovation in history. Even in 2018, I can't think of a more important/influential actor in terms of advancing cinema/entertaining the world and keeping people from tearing each other's throats out. I mean, this man kept people entertained and motivated in some of the most difficult times in post 20th century history. And I'm seeing in the comments that this ovation actually lasted 12 full minutes?! That makes me smile, I only wish it was longer, but that would probably embarrass Charlie who is one of the most humble people ever, and already seemed totally overwhelmed by the love shown!
This legend, this incredibly loving genius..was actually thanking the audience..when sir, it is all of us who forevermore will be thanking you..for as long as the world watches movies, from the very beginning of it all, it was you sir who started it all..rest easy charlie..❤🙏❤️
I remember that Oscar telecast and the long ovation Mr. Chaplin received. It was one of the most classic moments in Oscar history. I think the audience wanted to remember Charlie Chaplin as the cornerstone of the Hollywood legacy and not for the political and legal troubles he endured. A touching moment. Thanks for sharing this video clip.
It is 2020....105 years from his 1915's film. But he is still making laugh as he did then. A legend who wl be admired and loved till the end of the world. Love from Pakistan! RIP the great soul of Chaplin 😍
CHARLIE CHAPLIN COPIED BOLLYWOOD ACTING STYLE IN INDIA BOLLYWOOD MAKE 100 MOVIES A YEAR!!!!! ALL WORTH MILLIONS EACH MOVIE HOLLYWOOD HAS 1 MOVE HIT A YEAR
You could definitely tell by the look on his face and the tears in his eyes, in fact his whole overwhelmed response, that he truly did not expect such a huge welcome. He probably thought there would be very few people in the audience who would even remember that he was some actor from the silent films. I am so so glad that he died knowing that he was, and would always be, remembered and loved.
I saw this Oscar Show as a teenager. I wish TH-cam or somebody had the entire clip. The stars laughing and crying at the great Chaplin footage shown. Ending with The Little Tramp holding a picture of a star, kicking it away, and walking away from the camera. As if, being a star doesn't last, and I think that hit home to many stars in the audience. Also the fact that if not for the early days of Chaplin, the stars at The Oscars might never have had a career. They stood and applauded 10 or 15 minutes, Oh, I wish you could see the entire thing. It brought tears to my eyes, still does. And my Dad who was no Liberal saying, " Of all the people that should have been kicked out of the USA and weren't, why him ".....Of course J Edgar Hoover had died....The greatest Oscar moment ever was Charlie Chaplin returning to USA after decades, to be Honored, and Honored he was, and this short clip doesn't capture the tears and love from all the stars for Chaplin on this night. For it was Chaplin who was at the beginning, and they owed their success later to him. The love and emotion in the room will never, can never be duplicated.....I suggest on TH-cam watching end of City Lights as the girl who was blind is laughing at the Tramp, but feeling his hand remembers him, and it was the Tramp who was her friend when blind and got the money for her operation, and the words for the girl, " Yes, Now I can See "....Or The Tramp rescuing the crying child being taken away....He amazes you with Comedy, but he amazes you with Drama....and on Music, the end of Modern Times, his song SMILE....and Petula Clark had a hit 1960's song with a Charlie Chaplin song, " This Is My Song ", with his words very fitting, " I care not what the world may say. Without your love there is no day "......It is fitting that after the decades, Chaplin was brought back to have his day after a shameful part of the 1950's blacklist era.
I searched this comment section (not the whole thing - it is way too long, I just searched for a moment) to see if anyone else besides you had mentioned that he was blacklisted. Nope!

He actually won a competitive Oscar the very next year too! He won Best Original Score for the 1952 film LIMELIGHT, which ended up being eligible for the 1972 awards since it didn't screen in LA until that year.

You've got to watch "The Great Dictator," his first talkie, but so powerful.
Me too
There are some silent films of his that were later narrated in his own voice. There's a 1942 re-release of The Gold Rush, for example
You’re not alone brother.
Watch his movie and speech about Hitler
He deserved every second of the standing ovation and then some nobody else can even come close to what he did he was the best of the best hands down.
He was the best silent film comedian in human history.
Indeed.
@@andrewprice8427 not just silent film. Just one of the best. City Lights is best ending to any film that I've seen
I'm a Buster Keaton fan.
I think for comedy/gags, Keaton was better. Chaplin pushed things farther into pathos and managed to move more successfully into the talking era.
They both were masters of their crafts (comedy/filmmaking) and I wouldn't kick either of them off my screen, but it's a matter of taste, and I prefer Stone Face flavor over Little Tramp.
Pfft.. Rowan Atkinson, buster keaton….

You say that as if he had the option to utter a single word. The entire industry was silent, you dolt. Every single silent comedy film star such as Chaplin, Lloyd and Keaton made people laugh without "uttering a single word".

This is the longest ovation given in the history of the Oscar's, it was 12 minutes...every second deserved.
Charlie didnt want to initially come back to the US to accept the Oscar as he feared the reception towards him would be negative. It was his wife Oona, who convinced him to accept this honour. He was fearful that people would have forgotten him after all the years away from the screen and that his return to the US would be greeted with hostility. You only have to watch this video to see how humble and emotional he was by the audience's reaction to him. Charlie Chaplin was a genius and a true legend.

SO touching!!!! He deserved this award more than anyone :')
The fact that he only ever revived an honorary Oscar gives hope to all film makers today, espetially comedic, that don't have the best reputation with critics. I honestly think that of modern comedic film makers the one most likely to be remembered as the Chaplin of our era is Seth Rogen. If you're a film geek you'll probably disagree whole heartedly, but terms of modern comedic cinema, he parallels Chaplin.
Abby Phillips Birdman won best Picture tho, so did Annie Hall and It Happened One Night.
The Oscars like comedies too.
Nati Artioli You're so hot that you've just melted my heart.

uhh no...
first you have to understand that mr chaplin was given a special honorary award by the academy for "the circus"
it preceded the "honorary oscar" in 72' by 40+ years.
rather then take all 4 categories for best actor/director/writer/comedy picture, the academy removed him from the running and distinguised him as in a category all his own.
"for versatility and genius in acting/writing/directing/producing"
say that word again..."genius"
sinkin in yet?
the achievement of "the circus" in the annals of films at that time was inimitable and deserving of more prestige than his competition could compete with.
likewise, the special honorary award in 29' is paramount to the honorary oscar 72'
chaplin still received an accolade from the academy for a singular piece of work and a dubious oscar ONE year after the honorary in 1972 for his score in limelight.
count 2 oscars. an honorary in 1972 and one in 73' for music plus the special honorary award given for the circus in 29'.
"the circus" special award acknowledgement by the academy that ultimately surpassed his competiton was a validation of his genius and work.
lets not forget it also was the very 1st academy awards.
writer/director/actor/producer...
things like this are rare for filmmakers and award ceremonies.
not to mention it was unheard of at that time to receive multiple category nominations.
and no, seth rogen compared to the master that was chaplin diminishes the wonderment/charm/mastery that that man was.
you dont have to be a "film geek" and pass on more diminishment with that callous approach to this artform.
the comparitive diminishment of one of the founding fathers of cinema by saying rogen parallels anything that man accomplished is laughable at best, and unmeritable at least.
let me know when rogen composes/directs/produces/acts/writes his pictures and does it per film. every film.
reinvents vaudeville to do stage work and has a silent film body of work in the mid 70's.
starts a collaborative film company.
all of this and add 50+ years in the industry, then... maybe... rogen can be held in the same breathe that was this man.
you effectively compared a master to an apprentice.
and p.s. the closest comparison to a "chaplin of our era" is woody allen.
mr allen has "eras" under his belt. eras!
aaaaand last but certainly not least,
critics have NO say who wins the oscar.
its peers who do the voting and "reputation with critics" means absolutely nothing.
this isnt some golden globes foreign press voting structure.
its peers.
NOT critics/press/media who do the voting.
TL:DR
1. chaplin has 3 awards from the academy of motion picture arts and sciences. 3!
2. rogen has yet to be proven as anything nearing chaplins genius.
3. "reputation with critics" means less than nothing concerning the academy awards or the AMPAS voting structure, let alone the honorary awards they bestow.
its peers who cast the votes.
know your history or youll be doomed to repeat it.

I had the honor of attending these 44th awarding of the Oscars--what a night it was. Something that occurred at this special presentation of Chaplin's honorary award that isn't shown in this video was, just after the gentleman finished introducing Chaplin onstage, Chaplin appeared from the wings on stage left (your right as you're looking). He was then serenaded by Johnny Mathis singing, "Smile" as he walked toward center stage. The audience erupted and stood on its feet….the ovation lasted twelve minutes (to this day, the longest in Oscar history) as Johnny sang the lyrics and, as I looked around, so many people were in tears, as was I. It truly was a magical evening and this video helped to bring back so many memories of that night. By the way, Chaplin's appearing at this Oscars presentation was his first visit to the United States in over 20 years! He was overwhelmed by the reception he received. While I don't agree with his political views, I do recognize him as being one of the major pinnacles in the history of film making. He was brilliant at it.
Thank you for sharing :)

@@titusho2 Communism is evil. It is demonic to its core. Socialism, when allowed, always leads to Communism. While I admire Chaplin's filmmaking skills and talent, I abhored his political beliefs. Communism is diametrically opposed to the Judeo-Christian foundation upon which our nation, the United States, was founded. When Krushchev, after taking office after Stalin's death, revealed the atrocities to the world all that Stalin had propogated and involved himself in. Krushchev, too, participated in the horrific atrocities in the former USSR -- in fact, more deaths occurred under Stalin than did Hitler. Nevertheless, these revelations failed to have any affect upon Chaplin and, hopefully, have his views changed. Instead, when he left the USA to go live in Switzerland, he was living off royalties from his films made in the USA --- and he remained pro-Soviet to his death. What did the USSR do, in return, to show their "gratitude" to Chaplin? They opened a Chaplin museum in Moscow, and during Chaplin's paternity suit with Joan Berry, the Soviets launched a Chaplin festival and blamed all his troubles on the Trotskyites and the William Randolph Heart press. Chaplin and all the rest involved in the blacklist -- deserved to be blacklisted. They allowed themselves to be duped by Communist infiltration into Hollywood that began in the 1930's and continued right in to the '40's. They did it through "front groups" posing as humanitarian aid groups, what have you, that were led by registered Communists. Chaplin was involved with these groups, as were many others such as Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, James Cagney, Edward G Robinson, Lillian Hellman who later became a screen writer...hordes of back lot, stage workers, etc., were duped into this mess. But, Chaplin (and Lillian Hellman, among many) continued right along and supported whole heartedly the Soviet cause and control of America. Hollywood was one of the plum areas the Soviets sought control and influence in order to achieve their goals. Thankfully, they failed. By the mid 1950's, much of the Communist influence in Hollywood had come to a close. Today, however, it's rearing its ugly head again through the co-opting of liberals and progressives to their side, easily deluding them to believing that a socialist state is the ideal, utopian state. WHAT...A...LIE!!!
He looks so humble and genuine! Also, he is the only actor i.e. legend in the history to get the longest applause which is approximately 12 minutes!
How humble he is....!!!
Oscar is getting honored by sir Chaplin.
" You're wonderful, sweet people. " A giant among giants! It's difficult for people to understand how a person could deserve a 12 minute standing ovation. Just watch his films and you will know what a remarkable man he was to the world. ( There is a famous photo of Chaplin addressing a huge crowd in New York, 1918. He was adored! )
Not hard for anyone with even a tiny knowledge of film/theater history.
He also got the ovation because it was his first return to America since he was told he would never be allowed to return because Hoover and McCarthy and evil people like Hedda Hopper, did what those jerks did in that era; lie about people being Communist and trying to take over the country.

It's exactly true
a true legend and a comedy genius there'll NEVER be another. My mum wept during this part of the ceremony and I knew why. I was ten back then.
A beautiful moment… but… it breaks my heart to see, him being so so thankful… as if the Oscar could contribute to a legacy like Chaplins and as if the Hollywood community was in a position to honor him at all. He was the one who honored them by accepting their award and coming back to the US to accept the statue. Artistic genius and brave humanist. An asset to mankind. Hollywood is not even worthy of polishing his shoes.

Legally Resisting Tyranny Because he wanted we are all the same and have the same, no rich and no poor. Only western world demonise communism and people are brainwashed how communism is bed because it was dangerous for elite and establishment. China communist country with the big GDP today.
He never "liked" Communism. He was one of the richest people in Hollywood.....why would he want to be a Communist? The truth is that he considered himself a universal "citizen of the world" and the whole commie thing started during World War II when he called for the USA to support Russia in their fight against the Nazis.
It was a witch hunt with movie stars, directors and writers all being unjustly blacklisted. They killed John Garfield. He had a heart attack at 38 from the stress of all the lies.

One must understand Charlie's life when watching this video! Betrayed by a country he loved, he was kicked out of the country. After thirty years, the US finally opened its doors back to him, and offered him this honorary award. If we go back farther, we can see his hopes and dreams as a young child enslaved to an orphanage. His mother in an asylum, his father an alcoholic. Charlie, against all the odds, rose up to become one of the Greats. I can't help but see Charlie's entire life swelling up in the form of tears...

played (2,130 games). The crowd in the stands, the opposing players and all
four umpires gave Ripken a standing ovation lasting more than 22 minutes, one
of the longest standing ovations for any athlete. During the ovation, Ripken
did a lap around the entire Camden Yards warning track to shake hands and give
high-fives to the fans.

@@henrybrown596 I searched on Google and this is the part of a paragraph, "And there wasn’t a dry eye in the house when Jack Lemmon gave him his famous Little Tramp hat and cane."
My question was in regards to the anchor, who gave such a polished speech.
You are also right as JL did present him, but only the hat and the stick and not the Oscar.
Such a man was CC, that he just saw the Oscar and proceeded to give his thanksgiving speech and immediately took the hat and the stick and did his trademark action of making the hat flip. That was simply superb.
I am from India 🇮🇳 , hence don't know so much of Hollywood. You may correct me if I am wrong.
Love from an Indian 🇮🇳.
I watched this when 13 years old and cried I'm watching him again at 65 and still crying, what a wonderful man.
Charlie, a man who made people laugh when it was badly needed.
The world needs him, in these difficult times. More than ever.🎭

LAST 12 MINUTES STANDING OVATION THE LONGEST IN ACADEMY HISTORY
Goosebumps
Nowadays they'd throw to commercial so they could force him off stage and get to the next bit that nobody would give a shit about.
if only they knew how many underage wives he had
Deserved indeed for a legend
@@peanutbutterrobot "If only"? Everybody knew.
What a great speech. It's definitely a reminder of a different time and era. We're kindness and happiness mattered.
THE IRONY OF LIFE -THE MAN WHO MADE THE WHOLE WORLD LAUGH HAS TEARS IN HIS EYE MUCH RESPECT FOR THE TRUE LEGEND
Why USA kicked him out?
@@dontchangeit6046 IDK
@@dontchangeit6046 They thought he was too anti-american and a communist and they also hated the great dictato. he got what was meant to be a life time ban from america when he was going on a vacation. they wouldn't let him back in.
While modern celebrities would use this moment to sermonise, preach and rant, this remarkable man only said thank you. Truly worthy.
He was able to speak through expressions at that very old age. Hats off to legend.

Most well deserved standing ovation in history. Even in 2018, I can't think of a more important/influential actor in terms of advancing cinema/entertaining the world and keeping people from tearing each other's throats out. I mean, this man kept people entertained and motivated in some of the most difficult times in post 20th century history. And I'm seeing in the comments that this ovation actually lasted 12 full minutes?! That makes me smile, I only wish it was longer, but that would probably embarrass Charlie who is one of the most humble people ever, and already seemed totally overwhelmed by the love shown!
This legend, this incredibly loving genius..was actually thanking the audience..when sir, it is all of us who forevermore will be thanking you..for as long as the world watches movies, from the very beginning of it all, it was you sir who started it all..rest easy charlie..❤🙏❤️
I remember that Oscar telecast and the long ovation Mr. Chaplin received. It was one of the most classic moments in Oscar history. I think the audience wanted to remember Charlie Chaplin as the cornerstone of the Hollywood legacy and not for the political and legal troubles he endured. A touching moment. Thanks for sharing this video clip.
It is 2020....105 years from his 1915's film. But he is still making laugh as he did then. A legend who wl be admired and loved till the end of the world. Love from Pakistan! RIP the great soul of Chaplin 😍
true dear
That historical standing ovation of 12 minutes on thay day is still an unbreakable record ♥️ we love You legend Charlie Chaplin
The world had Chalie Chaplin, Oscar is just a part of his world.❤
goose bumps.
There will be a time when we will wonder that the People like charlie Chaplin existed.
We are already living in that time, I guess.😭
Huh
CHARLIE CHAPLIN COPIED BOLLYWOOD ACTING STYLE IN INDIA BOLLYWOOD MAKE 100 MOVIES A YEAR!!!!! ALL WORTH MILLIONS EACH MOVIE HOLLYWOOD HAS 1 MOVE HIT A YEAR

Sir Charlie Chaplin was a gift for the world..
Such a gentle and funny soul who is dearly missed by all.
You could definitely tell by the look on his face and the tears in his eyes, in fact his whole overwhelmed response, that he truly did not expect such a huge welcome. He probably thought there would be very few people in the audience who would even remember that he was some actor from the silent films. I am so so glad that he died knowing that he was, and would always be, remembered and loved.
I saw this Oscar Show as a teenager. I wish TH-cam or somebody had the entire clip. The stars laughing and crying at the great Chaplin footage shown. Ending with The Little Tramp holding a picture of a star, kicking it away, and walking away from the camera. As if, being a star doesn't last, and I think that hit home to many stars in the audience. Also the fact that if not for the early days of Chaplin, the stars at The Oscars might never have had a career. They stood and applauded 10 or 15 minutes, Oh, I wish you could see the entire thing. It brought tears to my eyes, still does. And my Dad who was no Liberal saying, " Of all the people that should have been kicked out of the USA and weren't, why him ".....Of course J Edgar Hoover had died....The greatest Oscar moment ever was Charlie Chaplin returning to USA after decades, to be Honored, and Honored he was, and this short clip doesn't capture the tears and love from all the stars for Chaplin on this night. For it was Chaplin who was at the beginning, and they owed their success later to him. The love and emotion in the room will never, can never be duplicated.....I suggest on TH-cam watching end of City Lights as the girl who was blind is laughing at the Tramp, but feeling his hand remembers him, and it was the Tramp who was her friend when blind and got the money for her operation, and the words for the girl, " Yes, Now I can See "....Or The Tramp rescuing the crying child being taken away....He amazes you with Comedy, but he amazes you with Drama....and on Music, the end of Modern Times, his song SMILE....and Petula Clark had a hit 1960's song with a Charlie Chaplin song, " This Is My Song ", with his words very fitting, " I care not what the world may say. Without your love there is no day "......It is fitting that after the decades, Chaplin was brought back to have his day after a shameful part of the 1950's blacklist era.
I searched this comment section (not the whole thing - it is way too long, I just searched for a moment) to see if anyone else besides you had mentioned that he was blacklisted. Nope!
Gave so much to cinema that even an Honorary Oscar doesn't do the man justice!
I cant believe im crying while watching this,what a man! Evn on stage he intentionaly sliped his hat to make audience laugh! All he wanted was to make his audience laugh
diykitkat
Yes he is a true legend
Faking
Facts yell
Hm you are ABSOLUTELY right 'diykitkat' .
you have to laugh you moron why are you crying ?
“The man who could make people laugh by not saying anything!”
And the same thing goes with the opposite emotion as well my friend!!
And same goes with Mr Bean also
@@Ricardo77575 Chaplin was the original. Ask Mr. Bean. He will tell you his biggest influence was Chaplin. It's glaringly obvious. Without Chaplin, there would be no Bean.
@@billgarrett4491 I agree!
@@billgarrett4491 agree !
I consider it an honest and privilege to be able to take something valuable away from watching Chaplin, he was a gift to the world and showed us all that even with all our faults we can always show love and kindness towards each other.
Pain is so evident on his Face....His Expression Conveyed More than a million Words...
Respect🖤
None of that comment is true.
@@zebunker i agree. Mr. Chaplin was just deeply moved by the honor. That's all.
Absolutely ! But in the end, he forgave Hollywood. He brought me to tears.
He was the prototype for the word Superstar. Legend RIP. The tramp.
Probably because he knew the way Hollywood was going, he probably saw what they do to children. He looks very sad as if he has regret.
It was cut out in this video, but he received 12 minutes of standing ovations.
del*.* The longest in the history of the Academy :-)
+Relf Cepter who gives a fuck and im just commenting and watching this cause im bored. i actually was searching for the Mexican Famous movie star Cantiflas
LongLiveTheSouth Back to reality, people like you exist.
No one will see 12 mins of ovation.. They will. Probably skip
@@MeValeMadre5 Who?
So glad to see Chaplin even influenced the new 'Joker' movie. His song 'Smile' and a scene from 'Modern Times' are in the movie!
Cool. I want to see Joker.
The music used in joker plays at the end of modern times
The great Chaplin is nothing like the Violent Mess of the Joker !
@@770WT That's baloney. There are hundreds of Hollywood movie way more violent than Joker, including the average Scorsese and Tarrentino movie. But now suddenly people complain about Joker. That's the real joke.
@@leafyutube just leave em be...they need an excuse to criticize.
In my film class during college, we focused largely on Chaplin and how he was literally one of the greatest of all time. I love to see that he is honored with this award.
He actually won a competitive Oscar the very next year too! He won Best Original Score for the 1952 film LIMELIGHT, which ended up being eligible for the 1972 awards since it didn't screen in LA until that year. He is one of only 7 people in Oscars history to win competitively AFTER getting an Honorary Lifetime Achievement Oscar (the other 6 being Cecil B DeMille, Henry Fonda, Paul Newman, Ennio Morricone, Spike Lee, and Hayao Miyazaki).
