Charlie Chaplin VS America

In the aftermath of World War II, Charlie Chaplin was criticized for being a politically liberal internationalist. He had never become a U.S. Citizen since emigrating from England, something that would be held against him as xenophobia took hold. Aside from his politics, Chaplin had another problem: his sexual interest in young women, which became a convenient way for those who hated his politics to condemn him. Refused reentry to the U.S. from a trip abroad, he settled in Switzerland and made his last two films in London. Charlie Chaplin vs. America is the surprising, disturbing story of how “cancel culture” made a film genius too controversia! for his adopted homeland.
