Chaplin (1992)

I was wondering what peoples opinions of this film were.

I saw it for the first time yesterday and I enjoyed it, however, I am no expert on Chaplins life or work

Is it conceived as an accurate portrayal of the man, or does it take some artistic license? Are there better or worse films based on the subject matter out there?

I'd love to hear what other people think

Thanks.
 
I believe it's based on Chaplin's own autobiography, so if that's true it ought to be accurate! I didn't get to see much of it, but the missus did and said it really surprised her. She really enjoyed it, so much so she said she was going to try and get some Chaplin DVD's. Make of that what you will. :D
 
such a great film from Dicky Attenborough, he doesn't do biogs by halves, watch Ghandi

although the biographer in the film, played by Hopkins, was fictional,
