	Timothy Brock - Essays and Articles - A Woman of Paris
		The dilemma of the 1977 version of the score to A Woman of Paris is a complex one, and for me, a source of mixed feelings.
		However for A Woman of Paris, my 8th score restoration for the Chaplins, the goal was the same, but more than few educated guesses and well-thought-out liberties had to be taken.
		So in co-operation with the Chaplin family, I carefully proceeded to create a new score for A Woman of Paris, by using both the recently un-earthed dramatic compositions of 1951, and reconfiguring some of the existing themes from the 1977 score, but more in the manner of previous Chaplin treatments of his own material.

	A Woman of Paris: A Drama of Fate (1923) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		The second film in my somewhat unusual Charles Chaplin double feature (after the delightfully fl 'Monsieur Verdoux (1947)'), 'A Woman of Paris' is perhaps the silent comedy master's least mentioned film, perhaps partly due to it not actually being a comedy, or because Chaplin himself appears only in a very brief cameo role.
		Written, produced and directed by Chaplin, 'A Woman of Paris' is a tightly-paced drama/romance, employing a lot of dialogue (somewhat unusual for Chaplin, who usually relied on extended slapstick comedic set pieces to drive his silent films) and a three-way relationship that has since become commonplace in films of this sort.
		Perhaps perceived as a harmful satire of the American way of life, 'A Woman of Paris' was banned in several US states on the grounds of immorality, and it was a commercial flop.

	Combustible Celluloid - A Woman of Paris (1923)
		But now that "A Woman of Paris" is released on DVD, I checked it out and found that it's a Chaplin masterpiece and showed a layer to his work that I never knew existed.
		Though he does not appear in it (except for a small, almost unrecognizable cameo), "A Woman of Paris" is a remarkably accomplished film.
		The real reason I finally felt safe to rent "A Woman of Paris" is because it now comes on a DVD in a double bill with "A King in New York" (1957), another underrated Chaplin classic.

		The hidden message of the book is that most of the English and American women in Paris during the first half of this century were lesbians, or at least very much bisexual.
		The first main subject is Sylvia Beach, the founder of the famous bookstore called Shakespeare's, and the woman responsible for the publication of some of the most important and most controversial writings of the period, most especially Joyce's Ulysses.
		However one may feel about feminism and women's studies, it is simply a fact that the role women played in the Paris literary scene was absolutely essential, and if one only knows about male authors of the time then one is missing half the picture.
