= __Speech__ = Good evening! We have here to honor the opening of the new department for cinema museum. We chose to call it Charlie Chaplin We named it that is because he was a very great actor, and he contributed a lot to the cinema development. Charlie was born to a family of actors, when he was 8 years old, he moved to an orphanage. When he was 17 years old he had his first contract, with Kiston company and then his career started to develop! His main character in the silent movie was the tramp- a poor man with funny clothes that does things unusualy and makes you laugh! He succeeds so much despit the passage to the talking movies. He continued to produce more silent movies but also talking movies. Chaplin was voted the greatest actor in movie history. He was the first, and to date the last, person to control every aspect of the filmmaking process — from founding his own studio, producing, acting and promoting his films In the first decades of the 20th century, when weekly movie going was a national habit, Chaplin more or less invented global recognizability and helped turn an industry into an art. In 1916, his third year in films, his salary of $10,000 a week made him the highest-paid actor — possibly the highest paid person — in the world. By 1920, "Chaplinitis," accompanied his success by a flood of Chaplin dances, songs, dolls, comic books and cocktails, was very wide. Filmmaker Mack Sennett thought him "just the greatest artist who ever lived." Other early admirers included George Bernard Shaw, Marcel Proust and Sigmund Freud. In 1923 Hart Crane, who wrote a poem about Chaplin, said his pantomime "represents the futile gesture of the poet today." Later, in the 1950s, Chaplin was one of the icons of the Beat Generation. 1981 to 1987, IBM used the Tramp as the logo to advertise its venture into personal computers. To sum up- Chaplin influenced the world very much, he changed the world of film and makes us laugh to this very day!!.
