Charlie Chaplin Gives Me the Giggles

I never really payed too much attention to any of his movies or anything about his life...but this man was funny.

So, I'm watching a movie about his life. Robert Downey, Jr. plays Charlie. Great role for him. One of my favorite scenes... He's directing a movie and he tells the actress to do another take of eating her beans. She is sick of eating them and doesn't hesitate to tell him. He says, "I'll take you to dinner." Pause. "Chili Con Carne?"

Now that shit is funny.

I never knew Michael Jackson was an artist. Not a musician, but a real true artist. When he was nine years old, he sketched a picture of Charlie Chaplin for his Aunt. It will be up for auction. I can't imagine anyone in his family would give that up!
