Geraldine Chaplin : The Gift of Film Performance Hardback
by Steven Rybin
Part of the International Film Stars series
Hardback
Description
Geraldine Chaplin is the most distinguished actor among Charlie Chaplin's children.
Through her collaborations with major international film directors, she has created a striking performative presence across international cinema.
Her acting also evokes, with varying levels of self-consciousness and in shifting cinematic contexts, the memory of her father's screen performances.
This book analyses the distinctive screen art of Geraldine Chaplin and uncover parallels between her performances and her father's work on film.
Through this method, this star study explores the rich and surprising relationships between art cinema and silent film comedy, and between modernist and classical cinematic performance.
It offers a long overdue appreciation of Geraldine Chaplin's own remarkable screen achievements, all the while shedding new insight into the art of Charlie Chaplin through the singular prism of his daughter's bold work.
