Jay Rosenblatt<br />

I’M CHARLIE CHAPLIN<br />

(t.l.: Io sono Charlie Chaplin)<br />

In questo cortometraggio Jay Rosenblatt documenta con<br />

umorismo come una bambina sviluppi dentro di sé un forte<br />

desiderio. La piccola Ella si sta vestendo con sua madre<br />

per la festa di Halloween. Baffetti, un cappello e un bastone<br />

da passeggio la trasformano nel suo idolo Charlie Chaplin.<br />

Comincia a imitare la sua camminata caratteristica. La<br />

vediamo uscire per andare a chiedere i dolcetti. Tornata a<br />

casa entusiasta mette al sicuro il bottino <strong>del</strong>la giornata. Vorrebbe<br />

rimanere vestita come il suo idolo per altri dieci anni.<br />

Ma solo un anno dopo, eccola che si veste da fantasma.<br />

Charlie Chaplin non è più il suo idolo, punto e basta. Terzo<br />

di una serie di film di Rosenblatt con protagonista sua figlia.<br />

In this short film, Jay Rosenblatt documents with humor how a<br />

small girl develops a strong desire within her. Little Ella’s mother<br />

is helping her get dressed for a Halloween party. A mustache,<br />

a hat and a cane transform her into her idol, Charlie Chaplin.<br />

She even begins imitating his characteristic walk. We see her<br />

leave the house to go trick-or-treating then come home, happy,<br />

and put away her bag of goodies. She wants to remain dressed<br />

like her idol for ten more years. However, for the following Halloween,<br />

there she is, dressed up like a ghost. Charlie Chaplin is<br />

no longer her idol, period. I’m Charlie Chaplin is the third in a<br />

series of Rosenblatt’s films featuring his daughter.<br />
