    • Meant as a summation of his life and art, Charles Chaplin's last American film has some stunning set pieces of vaudeville comedy — one featuring his great rival, Buster Keaton — but an inordinate degree of self-pity. As Calvero, a drunken has-been entertainer, Chaplin saves a young dancer (Claire Bloom) from suicide and nurses her to success, though his own comeback is doomed by a world that has no place for pantomime. Featuring five of his children, it's a very personal indulgence that works best as a celebration of British music hall, not as an exposé of Chaplin's own grievances - Source: Radio Times
