Oh yea, I remember that one too SC. At that time Chaplin was like....wow, a silent screen star that I had only seen in old movie clips and he was STILL alive. Don't know if I had ever heard him speak til then actually. He looked nothing like the movies I had seen. He had a daughter who was an actress too remember? Geraldine I believe.
You're right though, legends WERE legends back then OR at least it was way different than today.
