Charlie Chaplin first formed the story of Limelight as a 34,000-word novella, Footlights. This book traces the evolution of the story, from its origin in Chaplin's 1916 meeting with Nijinsky, then recounts the making of the film, and traces the real-life sources of Chaplin's memories: the people and theatres of London's Soho, and the ballet tradition of the theatres of Leicester Square, the Empire and the Alhambra.--From back cover.
