The ONLY thing that bothered me....
...was the "older" Chaplin's makeup. It was absolutely awful! It took away from some very good scenes, especially the end. I really wish it had been better, but other than that, it was a wonderful film. I've loved it since it came out, even though I was very young, always had an appreciation for biographical and classic films...I thank my grandparents for that. Now, I've seen other posters here saying "Oh it was awful, it didn't spend time on any of his films..." "It was so off base with his film making..." This wasn't about Charlie the film maker, the actor...it was about Charlie the MAN. His emotions, his love, his LIFE! Not his films. And as for that stupid a$$ pedophile remark...it wasn't so off base back then for older gentleman to marry young women. And look at him and Oona...the biggest gap in age and they truly loved each other till the very end. That's it, I've said my peace, let the haters hate, I do not care.
