Charles Spencer Chaplin

Charles Chaplin was born on April 16, 1889 as a son of a small vaudeville actor . His early years at his home in South London passed in great poverty. For a time he was cared for in an orphanage. He received very little schooling. At an early age he appeared on the music hall stage with his father and brother taking small parts in vaudeville.
At the circus Charles admired the art of the clown called Rabbit . Before meeting him Charles had never thought of becoming a comic actor.
After a short experience at the theatre he re-entered vaudeville in London as a member of the Fred Karno company. The Fred Karno pantomime troupe gave comic shows . Chaplin himself said that he would never have achieved success in pantomime without the art of mimicry he had learnt from his mother .
His first picture was made in 1913. Charlie put on old baggy trousers, a tight jacket, enormously large shoes and a small bowler hat. He also had a small mustache and a cane. His success was immediate and he remained true to his funny costume all through his career .
In 1918 he formed his own company and started producing films . He produced 80 films and in 79 of them he played the central character. Many have said that he was the greatest comic genius of all time.
What made his comedy so popular was the sympathy for human beings of the oddest sorts as well as for the ordinary people.
The life of his characters was full of misfortunes, but the always overcame their despair with courage and determination.
Although he denied any social meaning in his films he ridiculed the values of society mercilessly.
In “Modern Times ” he showed the terrible working conditions at the production line in a giant US factory.
His first full length talkie “The Great Dictator” was an anti-fascist masterpiece ridiculing Hitler . After WW II he spoke out against the McCarthy witch-hunts against communists. For that he was deprived of the right to live in US.
He said he would never go back , but in 1972 he went back to accept the highest prize in the film industry – an Oscar Reward.
The last 25 years of his life were spent on Switzerland. He lived in a quiet Swiss village with views of Lake Geneva. He died of old age when he was 88, early in the Christmas morning 1977.

The local pagan priests used all their magic on him and they were very powerful. Once they poisoned his wine but Patrick removed the poison miraculously and drank the wine. One of the legends says that St. Patrick got rid of all the reptiles by beating his drum. He also used the three leaves of the Shamrock to illustrate the idea of the Trinity, pointing out Father, Son and the Holy Ghost. People wear green on St. Patrick's Day and sing and hum along the marchers. 13) CHARLIE CHAPLIN ­ small man with a big message or something...

Rudyard Kipling

"If--". In a 1995 BBC opinion poll, it was voted the UK's favourite poem. This exhortation to self- control and stoicism is arguably Kipling's most famous poem. Many have wondered why he was never made Poet Laureate. (A poet laureate is a poet officially appointed by a government and is often expected to compose poems for State occasions and other government events. In the United Kingdom the term has for centuries been the title of the official poet of the monarch, since the time of Charles II )Some claim that he was offered the post during the interregnum of 1892-96 and turned it down. At the beginning of World War I, like many other writers, Kipling wrote pamphlets which enthusiastically supported the UK's war aims. Death and legacy Kipling kept writing until the early 1930s, but at a slower pace and with much less success than before. He died of a perforated duodenal ulcer ( perforeeritud kaksteistsõrmiksoole haavand ) on 18 January

Charlie Chaplin

From "Easy Street" (1917) to "Modern Times" (1936), he made many of the funniest and most popular films of his time. He was best known for his character, the naive and lovable Little Tramp. The Little Tramp, a well meaning man in a raggedy suit with cane, always found himself wobbling into awkward situations and miraculously wobbling away. More than any other figure, it is this kind-hearted character that we associate with the time before the talkies. Born in London in 1889, Chaplin first visited America with a theater company in 1907. Appearing as "Billy" in the play "Sherlock Holmes", the young Chaplin toured the country twice. On his second tour, he met Mack Sennett and was signed to Keystone Studios to act in films. In 1914 Chaplin made his first one-reeler, "Making a Living". That same year he made thirty-four more short films, including "Caught in a Cabaret", "Caught in the Rain", "The Face on the Bar-Room Floor", and "His Trysting Place"

Tsehhov daam koeraga Chekov Lady and the Lapdog

Chekov Lady and the Lapdog Reid about Chekov: The characters in Chekhov's plays are never fully "known" ­ as a writer, he seems to delight in maintaining a sense of indeterminacy, and unknowability, about them. The bare facts are always laughably inadequate to the complexity of "real" people. Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born on 29 January (New Style), 1860, in Taganrog, a small port on the Sea of Azov, in southern Russia. As the son of a grocer and grandson of a serf, Chekhov was a first-generation intellectual. His modest background and upbringing are crucial to his development as a writer. Chekhov always felt that he missed out on childhood. It was a very hard lifeand it may have contributed to his poor health: he succumbed later on to the"family disease", tuberculosis, which led to his early death at the age of 44.His mother was a quiet, gentle soul who was full of stories of her early life. In later years, Chekhov would say that "we inherited our talent from our father,but mother
