In
Richard Attenborough's 1992 biopic
Chaplin, Robert Downey Jr. played the titular funny man from the silent film era.
On a recent visit to The London Film Museum on May 15, 2012 I photographed this selection of original costumes featured in the movie. Original costumes worn by Robert Downey Jr. as Charlie Chaplin
Included in the special exhibit of the influential and iconic film star was this magnificent 'Bird costume' from the 'Gold Rush' scene in Chaplin, along with another outfit worn by Robert Downey Jr. in the role.Chaplin movie poster
