By considering factions of America as diverse as 8mm film collectors, Beat poets and writers and readers of Chaplin biographies, this cultural study determines conclusively that Chaplin’s Little Tramp never died, but in fact experienced a resurgence, which began slowly even before 1950 and was wholly in effect by 1965 and then confirmed by 1972, the year in which Chaplin returned to the United States for the final time, to receive accolades in both New York and Los Angeles, where he received an Oscar for a lifetime of achievement in film.Motion pictures—HistoryUnited States—Study and teachingMotion pictures—Great BritainEthnology—EuropeAmerica—LiteraturesFilm Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413070American Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411010British Cinema and TVhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413040British Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411050North American Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/834000Motion pictures—History.United States—Study and teaching.Motion pictures—Great Britain.Ethnology—Europe.America—Literatures.Film History.American Culture.British Cinema and TV.British Culture.North American Literature.791.4309Haven Lisa Steinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1064194BOOK9910150446003321Charlie Chaplin’s Little Tramp in America, 1947–772536792UNINA
