Sommario/riassunto |
|
This is a collection of scholarly essays that focuses on particular phases of Chaplin's career through various critical lenses, in order to highlight the understated, and often overlooked, complexity of Chaplin's filmmaking, and to provide insight into both the extensive range and the limits of the critical leverage of a broad array of interpretive theories. |
