In the 20th century, it is not too much to say that Einstein made the greatest contributions to science, and not many would disagree that Chaplin (April 16, 1889 – December 25, 1977) did the same for film. He was the first actor that introduced comedy to most Chinese viewers, and politically, he was also a close friend of China’s. His silent films broke the barrier of language and his form of art was recognized by all. It will be a difficult task to find a person in China who does not recognize Chaplin, even today. There are many great comedians, both now and past, but no one has yet surpassed Chaplin for his vitality and longevity.
