“Limelight” (1952) is full of poignant moments.

Not widely released in the U.S. until 1972,  in review dated April 19th 1972 film critic Roger Ebert said:

“Although it was not quite his last film, there can be little doubt that “Limelight” was Charlie Chaplin’s farewell. It is also probably his most personal, revealing film.

Helen Keller visiting Chaplin on the set of Sunnyside (1919)

↳ “Before he reeled off the pictures,” Keller recalled, “he let me touch his clothes, his shoes, his moustache that I might have a clearer idea of him onscreen. He sat beside me and asked me again and again if I was really interested–if I liked him and the little dog¹ in the picture”

¹ He had screened A Dog’s Life for her

Charlie Chaplin & Tom E. Davies

By chance I came across this site and the photo of Charlie Chaplin and Tom E. Davies. I have had this photo hanging on my wall for the past 50 years. Although it is signed by Tom E. Davies, we didn’t realise that he was the man standing with Charlie. 

I am so happy to have at long last discovered the name of the mystery man - thanks to this site!

Your welcome, glad to be of help :)
