Written and directed by Charles Chaplin. ” Released by United Artists (Australasia) Ltd. Jno. Evans & Son Printing Co., 468-488 Kent St., Sydney. ” A Woman of Paris is a feature-length silent film that debuted in 1923. The film, an atypical drama film for its creator, was written, directed, produced and later scored by Charlie Chaplin. It is also known as A Woman of Paris: A Drama of Fate. Several posters were created when the film was released in different countries. This is considered to be the best artwork for this poster anywhere in the world. Two things distinguish this film from Chaplin’s other work. The most obvious is that he does not appear in the film, at least not in his traditional role of the Tramp. He has a brief cameo as a porter in a train station. This role is inconspicuous and not credited and most people seeing the film will not notice that it is actually Chaplin. The other major difference between this and most of Chaplin’s other work is that the film is a serious drama. The film was inspired by Chaplin’s brief 1922 romance with Peggy Hopkins Joyce, whose stories of her romantic adventures in Europe provided the framework of the screenplay. $2,000–2,500 410 81
