Charlie Chaplin Gets a Hero's Welcome, 1972After 20 years of exile over his leftist politics and half a century after his landmark silent comedies, Chaplin returns to America for an Honorary Oscar and an emotional standing ovation.
In 1972 he was honored with an Academy Award for his "incalculable effect in making motion pictures the art form of the century."
He authored two autobiographical books, "My Autobiography" in 1964 and its companion volume, "My Life in Pictures" in 1974. Chaplin died of natural causes on December 25, 1977 at his home in Switzerland.

Rutger Hauer, who spoke an amazing movie line in "Bladerunner" "I've seen things you wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All these moments will be lost in time. Like tears in rain." I've always liked that quote
