Summary:

Hollywood icon Charlie Chaplin rocketed to fame from the slums of Victorian London and spent decades as one of Hollywood's most famous and beloved stars until his scandalous fall from grace. His stage persona and incendiary media portrayal defined how he was perceived, but his private life has always been shrouded in mystery until now. Never-before-heard recordings, intimate home movies, and newly restored classic films reveal a side to Chaplin that the world never got to see.
