Overview

Popular with middle America throughout the 1920s, Charlie Chaplin's A Woman of Paris (1923) has had an enduring influence throughout cinema history. Contrary to some criticism, the film was not just Chaplin's recycling of Peggy Hopkins Joyce story. Indeed, he drew on a series of romances for inspiration during production--including the films of Pola Negri--as well as his own earlier movies. Based on extensive new research, this book covers the making of film in detail and reveals what other works on A Woman of Paris got wrong.
