Many remember Charlie Chaplin's comic masterpiece, The Gold Rush,
as the finest blend of comedy and farce ever brought to the screen.
Far fewer remember its heroine, Georgia Hale (1900-1985). Seventy
years after the film's appearance, Heather Kiernan brings Georgia
Hale back to life in this edition of her hitherto unpublished
memoirs. Research work embodied in her perceptive introduction
clears up many uncertainties about Hale's life and provides an
outline of her most significant years. Hale's own chief purpose was
to describe her long and close relationship with Chaplin and his
dual personality, which made the relationship at times a love-hate
one. As Chaplin's constant companion during the years 1928-1931,
she became a part of his social circle, meeting people as diverse
as Marion Davies, Sergei Eisenstein, Ralph Barton, and Albert
Einstein. The memoir effectively ends with Chaplin's marriage in
June 1943 to Oona O'Neill. This unique book contains illustrations
from the Chaplin archive, most of which are published here for the
first time.
