CHARLES CHAPLIN
In creating The Little Tramp, Charlie Chaplin became a legend.
Who
remembers now that he was English, that he came up from nothing, that he
made his fortune in the United States, that he had to flee the country
under pressure from McCarthyism, or that he created the very first
production house run by artists?
Full of humor, the “Stars of History”
collection offers a fresh new look at the legends of cinema.
MARILYN MONROE
Marilyn Monroe, a name known to every generation!
Whether sublime,
touching, or pathetic, she personified the fantasies of the secret world
of Hollywood. But behind the glittering myth was a woman whose life was
anything but charmed.
It is this singular life, from her turbulent
childhood, via her tumultuous love life and her proximity to the highest
spheres of society, to her tragic final days, that the authors have
retraced here in vivid detail.
Full of humor, the “Stars of History”
collection offers a fresh new look at the legends of cinema.
