• and when he emerged, he found he had created a personality everybody loved a little guy in a bowler hat, a close fitting jacket a cane a pair of outsized shoes and a brush like moustache. Before long Chaplin found himself a star .
• that puzzled him for he saw himself essentially as a shy British music hall comedian .
•  the us acknowledged him as its king of silent film comedy .
•  soon so did crowds all over the world . 
• but life wasn’t always a laugh for Charles spencer Chaplin . both his parents were music hall artists, who separated when Charlie was very young .
