I received a kindle copy of "Charlie Chaplin vs. America. from Netgalley. There have been plenty books about Charlie Chaplin including a memoir by Charlie Chaplin. This book is also a biography of Charlie Chaplin's life. Also writes about all the movies he has starred in or directed. This book includes Charlie Chaplin's being a victim of the vicious attacks on men and women in show business in the late 1940s into the 1950s, during the communism scares that bullies like Joseph McCarthy did to innocent people who were in show business. Many of their careers were destroyed by false accusations during this horrible time in history.Charlie Chaplin was one of the victims. He left the USA in the early 1950s and did not return for 20 years. This book writes about what this was like for Charlie Chaplin. It also writes of other parts of his life. Growing up poor and hungry in England even having to work in work houses as a child. His failed marriages then the very happy marriage to a woman over 30 years his junior. the Author Scott Eyman also shares the opinions of other actors and actresses he has worked with. He keeps this biography fair {I think ] tries not to go into mudslinging. I liked reading about this talented actor. Learning a bit more about Charlie Chaplin.
