Viac o knihe
Set in the early 20th century, the book explores Fred Evans' rise as a beloved British film comedian, known for his anarchic character "Pimple." With a background in pantomime and music hall, he starred in 200 silent films, using satire to critique contemporary cinema and societal norms. His humorous burlesques provided a counterbalance to the seriousness of feature films, appealing to audiences navigating the new film landscape. However, shifting tastes and industry backlash led to his decline in film, prompting a return to stage performances.
