Happy Birthday CHARLIE CHAPLIN

         Born April 16, 1889. Known for his archetype character, the Tramp. He was not only the biggest, most beloved personality of the silent era, world wide but he was also a comedic genius and a master film maker. 
        

        
Those unfamiliar with his body of work, I recommend starting with one of these: 
        The Kid, The Gold Rush, City Lights, Modern Times and The Great Dictator. Each is an individual masterpiece. Each brought something new to motion pictures which endures to this day.
