"LA NAISSANCE DE CHARLOT - Keystone 1914" is a semi-annual review which focuses on the study of Charlie Chaplin's earliest film work, particularly the period at the Keystone studios, under the supervision of Mack Sennett, the "King of Comedy".
Chaplin made 35 films at Keystone, films that are still little known today, and some of which have been completly forgotten.
Other Chaplin Keystone films are extremely rare, with many existing only in highly abridged form, suffering multiple edits and cuts.
This magazine will supply cast list and analyses, inventories of film sources, and bibliographical critiques. It will also provide, through reconstructive analysis, as complete shot continuities as are possible.
On a film-by-film basis, Chaplin's gradual screen birth from January through December, 1914 will be documented.
The extraordinary character that emerged would go on to become a legendary and universal screen icon. |
