Geraldine Chaplin

She is hard to classify. On one hand she is acting royalty, but in the other she is not where an actress of her talent should be.

What a face! She is great

When she was born, her father was 55 and her mother was 19.

Everyone talks about Julie Christie or Catherine Deneuve, but Geraldine Chaplin was one of the most naturally beautiful women of the 1960's.

nepo baby

R5 Yeah but she's had steady work, no?

Age has not been kind to her.

Who *is* it kind to, r7?

R7 I think she has aged naturally

Thank you, R4. She and Julie Christie were perfectly cast in "Doctor Zhivago." Both were beautiful women with Chaplin representing demure innocence and Christie raw sexuality.

Loved her in "The Crown." Hope one day we'll get a biography of the Queen Mother that reveals how she really felt about Mrs. Simpson.

She IS Geraldine Chaplin!

You may find this closed thread from 2021 of interest.

R12 thank you!

Any gossip?

The 1978 Alan Rudolph gem has been recently been released. Chaplin is superb is a noirish femme fatale. It's also fascinating to watch because Tony Perkins and his wife Berry Berenson play a married couple. Berenson wasn't much of an actress, but as a wife kept constantly unbalanced by a husband who may or may not be that into her, is perfect casting. It can be seen on Tubi and Roku.

R11 damn you, you beat me to it!

The family's lovely villa above Vevey.

She is rich, so it doesn't matter

Papa was a pedo. Bet he tramped into her nursery when she was 12.

She was in the Merchant Ivory film Roseland.

Geraldine Chaplin played Alice in a version of Henry V for The Hollow Crown adaptations. Eric Porter was in stage productions of Henry V.

I thought she was homely at first but she’s grown on me.

I watched Home for the Holidays last night, and she was hilarious!

I liked her in The Mirror Crack'd with Elizabeth Taylor, Kim Novak, Rock Hudson, Tony Curtis, Charles Gray, Edward Fox, and Angela Lansbury

She played her grandmother in Chaplin.

She’s worked steadily for nearly sixty years, but mainly in European films. I thought was she great as the older Wallis Simpson in The Crown

FABULOUS in NASHVILLE!!!

"O cars!--what are you trying to tell me?" hahahaha

She had a delicate, ethereal beauty. She's been scrawny.all her life hence the shriveled apple look she sports today. But I admire her authenticity and natural aging.

Perfect for Altman movies.

She is so wonderful in this. A truly fine actress. Underrated.

All through this short film she is shot in extreme closeup.

What would you rather look at, her natural visage or some 75 year old trying to look 30?

I did like her in the 70's Noir mentioned upthread, altho I forget the name, where she basically was a stalker. Stumbled upon it on late nite. Quite a good watch.

You can’t remember its name?

R33 it's this one. I looked it up for you. Very entertaining film.

Her eyes remind me of Bjork.

I know what its title is, hence my question “You can’t remember its name?”

Well, she looks like a scarecrow now
