Božilović, Nikola https://phaidrabg.bg.ac.rs/o:30551 doi:10.18485/fdu_zr.2023.43.3 cobiss:120073993 ISSN: 1450-5681 Apstrakt Uz ime velikana filmske umetnosti Čarlija Čaplina vežu se mnoge sintagme: „planetarna ikona”, „kralj komedije”, „genije smeha”. Čaplin je umetnički fenomen jer je kompletan stvaralac: scenarista, režiser, producent, tumač glavnih uloga, kompozitor. Humanizam ispoljen u saosećanju sa slabima, obespravljenima i poniženima lajtmotiv je svih Čaplinovih filmova, što njegovu umetnost čini privlačnom za milionsku publiku širom sveta. Poznato je da je velikan komedije smatrao prioritetnim poznavanje ljudske prirode i da je bio opsednut psihologijom ličnosti. On se, na osoben i samo njemu svojstven način, takođe bavio socijalnom kritikom, ali je taj aspekt njegovog stvaralaštva bio manje teorijski osvetljen. U njegovom slučaju reč je o nepristajanju pojedinca na društvene norme i pravila koja sputavaju čovekovu slobodu. Ovaj rad posvećen je Čaplinovoj kritici društva koja je bila prisutna u njegovim komedijama, od nemih burleski do celovečernjih igranih filmova. Satira, ironija, groteska, aluzija i sarkazam su ubojito „oružje“ kojim je on raskrinkavao vlast i društvenu elitu kapitalizma. Abstract Many syntagmas are attributed to the name of great Charlie Chaplin: “planetary icon”, “king of comedy”, “genius of laughter”. Being an all-round film auteur: screenwriter, director, producer, leading actor, composer Chaplin is often seen as an artistic phenomenon. Humanism expressed in the sympathy for the weak, deprived and humiliated is the motif of all his films, and makes his art popular among and attractive to millions of viewers all over the world. It is well known that this comedy giant believed that the knowledge of human nature was of the highest priority and that he was obsessed with personality psychology. Although he engaged in social criticism in his unique and idiosyncratic way, this aspect of his work received much less theoretical attention. In his case, it was the issue of an individual not conforming to those social norms and rules that restrict human freedom. The aim of this paper is to analyse Chaplin’s critique of society as present and expressed in his comedies, from silent burlesques to feature films. Satire, irony, grotesque, allusion and sarcasm are a lethal “weapon” that he uses to expose those in power and capitalist social elites. application/pdf 446533 bytes 2023 All rights reserved Filmska komedija i društvena kritika: Čaplin Film comedy and social criticism: Chaplin
