Chaplin is a dramatized biography of the highs and lows in the life of one of the foremost comic geniuses the silver screen has ever known. With the use of flashback, an elderly Chaplin (Downey Jr.) discusses his autobiography with his editor (Hopkins) who urges him to be more vulnerable and emotionally honest with his memoirs. Together, they journey through Chaplin’s poverty-stricken childhood, closest friendships, many marriages, and his ingenious invention of “The Little Tramp,” as well as J. Edgar Hoover’s merciless pursuit, Chaplin’s shocking exile to Switzerland and his triumphant return to Hollywood. Downey’s astonishing mimicry of Chaplin’s gait, gestures and accents complete a dazzlingly authentic portrait of one of cinema’s first pop culture icons.
