Limelight

1952 G 2h 17m 8

A fading comedian and a suicidally despondent ballet dancer must look to each other to find purpose and hope in their lives.

Chaplin's final American film tells the story of a fading music hall comedian's effort to help a despondent ballet dancer learn both to walk and feel confident about life again. The highlight of the film is the classic duet with Chaplin's only real artistic film comedy rival, Buster Keaton.
