He soon developed the Tramp persona and formed a large fan base. His career spanned more than 75 years from a child in the Victorian era to close to his death at the age of 88 and encompassed both adulation and controversy. Chaplin became increasingly political and his next film The Great Dictator (1940) satirised Adolf Hitler.
