"Chaplin and Agee" charts the friendship between James Agee, author of "Let Us Now Praise Famous Men" and Pulitzer Prize-winning "A Death in the Family" and screenwriter for American classics including " The African Queen," and Charlie Chaplin, who starred in a staggering number of films from 1914 to 1967. This friendship emerged in the midst of the tumult of the 1940s and 1950s, with the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, McCarthyism and blacklisting. In print here for the first time is Agee's first screenplay, "The Tramp's New World, " lost until recently. The striking screenplay--a comedy "so dark it was without precedent"--was written for Chaplin's tramp character and set in post-apocalyptic New York. "Chaplin and Agee" also features many previously unpublished letters and photographs. As the story moves from Hollywood to Greenwich Village, these two figures come to life, revealing the untold story of the great bond between two influential twentieth-century artists.
