Charlie Chaplin: Prólogo de François Truffaut
Usando una terminología que quizás a él no le hubiera gustado, hoy podría decirse de Charlot que es un marginado, el más marginado de los marginados. Convertido en el artista más famoso y rico del mundo, su creador, Charles Chaplin, se vio obligado por la edad, o puede que por el pudor, en todo caso por la lógica, a abandonar el personaje de vagabundo a la vez que se daba cuenta de que los papeles de hombre “integrado” también le estaban prohibidos. Debía cambiar de mito pero sin dejar de ser mí ¿cómo hacerlo? Este libro es la historia de esa transformación. Y la escribe a través de varios textos que, a lo largo de los años, analizan la evolución de Chaplin-Charlot al tiempo que dejan entrever la de André Bazin, el gran crítico francés, prematuramente desaparecido, que la persiguió sin tregua contextualizándola a la perfección en la historia y el desarrollo del arte cinematográfico.

About the author
André Bazin
125 books175 followersWritings of French critic and film theorist André Bazin influenced the development of cinema of New Wave.
André Bazin founded the renowned and pioneering journal, Cahiers du cinéma.
Bazin saw and argued to depict "objective reality," such as documentaries of the Italian neo-realism school and "invisible" directors, such as Howard Winchester Hawks. He advocated the use of deep focus as George Orson Welles and wide shots as Jean Renoir "in depth," and he preferred "true continuity" through mise en scène over experiments in editing and visual effects. This preference placed him in opposition of the 1920s and 1930s to those who emphasized ability to manipulate reality. Theory of Bazin to leave the interpretation of a scene to the spectator linked the concentration on objective reality, deep focus, and lack of montage.
Bazin thought to represent a personal vision, rooted in the spiritual beliefs, known as personalism, of a director. A pivotal importance of these ideas on the auteur; François Truffaut in 1954 wrote the manifesto "A Certain Tendency of the French Cinema," article in Cahiers. People also know Bazin as a proponent of encouraging only "appreciative," constructive reviewers.
After World War II, Bazin, a major force, studied. He edited Cahiers until his death, and people then published a posthumous four-volume collection, titled Qu'est-ce que le cinéma? ( What is Cinema? ), to 1962. In the late 1960s and 1970s, people translated two of these volumes, mainstays of courses in the United States and England.
In response to widespread dissatisfaction with existing English translations, Caboos, the publisher of Montréal, in 2009 brought out a translation of selected essays from What is Cinema?

Chaplin üzerine başkasının kaleme aldığı en doyurucu kaynak. Bazin ve Rohmer birlikte Chaplin'in filmlerini tek tek masaya yatırırken, hem Şarlo'ya hem Chaplin'e dair değerli görüşlerini bizlerle paylaşıyorlar. Tek kişilik sinemaya iki kişilik yer ayırtmak isterseniz, gideceğiniz adres hazır.
