The take pleased everybody but
Chaplin. the director. There's q
retake. Chaplin then orders an
other scene set up while he chats
with q reporter. Occasionally the
producer, with his eye on the
budget. yells. Lets hurry it up"
Another comic music hall rou-
tine Is set up, rehearsed and shot.
It. too. is In the Chaplinesque ira
'dition. Again. he confers with the
musicians and makes changes. He
calls a wardrobe man and suggests
alterations in his baggy costume
which, incidentally, is not his
famed comic tramp outfit.
He then confers with the sound
engineer and tells him how he
wants the sound recorded. He
orders the camera action for the
next shot. His speech and actions
at all times are animated. Human
dynamo is an overworked descrip-
ton but 1t does describe Chaplin.
Individual orders are always
courteous and polite. Sometimes
when things are not going just
right, he grows a little impatient
and cusses in generalities, to wit:
All right. you so-and-sos. Will
everybody settle down? We're
putting on a show here"
Rarely ut Rest.
He seldom, If ever, bawls out
an individual publicly. His greet
lings to visitors drip with charm
and ARE warm. He rarely sits
down more than q minute at q
time. 3
Between shots, he somehow
finds time to give one Of his rare
interviews.
What does he think Of present.

What can 7 say?" he shrugs.

Then he confesses that he sell
dom sees any of the present-day
comics. He doesn't own q tele-
vision set.
But" he hastens to. add. "this
is not q comment on 8 great new
medium; it merely means that I
am usually too busy to watch
television."
Chaplin lives an ivory-tower
sort of existence away. from work.
He said it took him three years
to put the original idea of Lime
light" into its simple script form.
He worked q year composing the
score. He spent many months
casting the girl and many months
more staging the ballet sequences.
The movie, which Chaplin says
contains all the basic emotions
|of life itself, concerns the fading
music hall artist, q young bal
lerina and q young composer.
|Chaplin's son Sydney plays the
composer, Claire Bloom, an Eng
|lish actress, plays the ballerina.
II told her ] need q Duse, moth
ling less will do" smiles Chaplin.
|"And she has risen to the chal-
Ilenge of the role"
Although Chaplin wears comic
lget-ups. for the music hall rou-
tines in the movie, his part is
essentially q straight character
ia new character for me-"
Hes Not Retiring.
II do not wear the traditional
tramp costume but that does not
mean that ! have abandoned it

He says he has no plans follow
ing ''Limelight" but adds that he

He shot this movie in six weeks.

Most students Of comedy agree
that Chaplin is the greatest OF

Chaplin comedy? He says:

Judge down South once told me

HOLLYWOOD.

II being, Q genius entails as
much hard work as Charlie Chap
lin puts into it-who wants to be
q genius?
Chaplin has been called every
thing In the book but no one
could label him lazy. He works
so hard at picture making that
it's firing to just sit and watch
him.
It's no understatement to say
that Chaplin does the work Of
seven men. He has just wound
up 'Limelight." his first movie
since Monsieur Verdoux." Chap

Let's spend d day on the set.
In front Of the camera is q CO.

trousers and comic makeup. In
agility and energy. the man would
pass for 80. That is Chaplin. the

Queer, yells to the electricians.
Then Chaplin. the director, steps
of the stage and sights through
the camera lens He decides that
the camera shall remain station
airy while he pantomines q comic
violin solo.
Movements Are Perfect.
It's q hilarious solo he rehearses
Chaplin at his best. He's q
|southpaw violinist. but he only
|pantomines the playing. An on
stage violinist plays the difficult
piece. But Chaplin's finger and
bow movements are perfectly syn
|chronized with the music.
Chaplin, an accomplished pi-

hasn't played the violin much in
recent years.
A glance around. discloses some-
thing unusual for movie sets,
Everybody the janitor on
up stops work to watch Chaplin

[gests to the violinist and pianist
that perhaps the piece should b
