Charlie Chaplin
Charlie Chaplin was born on April 16. 1889 in London. His father was an entertainer and although not one of the big names, he was doing very well. His mother Hannah was also an entertainer. While they were by no means rich. the music hall provided the Chaplins with a comfortable living.
Unfortunately happy life did't last long. Father's alcoholism was slowly, but surely destroying his marriage. Finally it ended in divorce. But Hannah was indomitable(不屈不挠的). Without her, Charlie Chaplin would have become just one more child lost in the poverty of Victorian London. Somehow she not only managed to keep Charlie and his brother Syney clean and warm, clothed and fed, but she conjured(变戏法)little treats for them. She would sit at the window watching the passersby and guess at their characters from the way they looked and behaved, spinning tales to delight Charlie and Syney. Charlie took in her skills and went on using them all his life.
Charlie had always believed, even in the worst times, that he had some special potentials inside him. He. took his courage and went to see one .of the top theatrical agents. With no experience at all, he was being offered the part of Billy--the pageboy (小听差) in a new production of "Sherlock Holmes". "Sherlock Holmes" opened on July 27, 1903 at the enormous "Pavilion Theatre". Charlie seemed to change overnight. It was as if he had found the thing he was meant to do.
In 1910. when Karno set off on its yearly American tour, Charlie was regarded as "one of the best pantomime(哑剧)artists ever seen here. " They had reached Philadelphia when a telegram arrived and he was being offered the chance to replace a star in the Key- stone film company.
Cinema was born in the same year as Charlie, though people still believed it was a passing fad(一时的狂热,时尚), and would never replace live shows. He was kept hanging about for several weeks and he used the time to watch and to learn. He was determined to master this new medium. It offered him the chance of money and success and it would set him free from the unpredictability of live audience.
Charlie's first film, released in February 1914, was called "Making a living". Though it didn't satisfy Charlie, the public liked it. After that he made ten films and he learned a lot. The public loved him and distributors were demanding more and more Chaplin films. In an incredibly short time, Charlie had become a very important man in motion picture.

Leigh was named best director, beating "The Aviator" director Martin Scorcese. Scorcese's film——which has 11 nominations for the Feb. 27 Academy Awards——had led the field with 14 nominations. But members of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts scattered the prizes widely. While Scorcese and "Aviator" star Leonardo DiCaprio went home empty-handed, the film won a best supporting actress award for Cate Blanchett, as well as prizes for production design and best hair and makeup.
Imelda Staunton won best actress for her wrenching performance as a 1950s Cockney house-wife who performs illegal abortions in "Vera Drake." The film also took the costume design prize. Jamie Foxx was named best actor for his uncanny depiction of singer Ray Charles in "Ray"; the film also won the award for best sound. British star Clive Owen was named best supporting actor for "Closer."
The British awards, known as BAFTAs, have become an essential pre-Oscars stop since they were moved in 2000 from April to a February date, preceding the Academy Awards. A clutch of Hollywood stars--including DiCaprio, Keanu Reeves, Richard Gere, Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell and model Claudia Schiffer--braved the rain and cold to walk up the red carpet in London's Leicester Square, watched by hundreds of movie fans.
The Che Guevara road movie "The Motorcycle Diaries" won two awards--best foreign-lan-guage fill and best music. Another double winner was fractured romantic comedy "Eternal Sun-shine of the Spotless Mind," which took BAFTAs for editing and for Charlie Kaufman's tricksy original screenplay. The prize for best adapted screenplay went to Alexander Payne and Jim Taylor for the wine-tasting comedy "Sideways."
"My Summer of Love," Pawel Pawliowski's bittersweet tale of romance between two teenage girls, was named best British film. Writer/director Amma Asante won the award for achievement on a first British feature for "A Way of Life." The short film award went to Kelly Broad and Hattie Dalton for "The Banker," while Andrew Gregory and Sejong Park took the short animation prize for "Birthday Boy."
The awards--officially the Orange British Academy Film Awards--are sponsored by mobile phone company Orange.
