Let's call it Six Degrees of Charlie Chaplin. Last night I went with Ms. Saru to see a performance of the Eugene O'Neill play, Anna Christie. Not knowing much about O'Neill or his work, I turned to Wikipedia and discovered that O'Neill renounced his third daughter for marrying none other than Charlie Chaplin! In 1943, the 54 year-old Chaplin (one year younger than Eugene O'Neill) wed Oona O'Neill. The marriage as apparently long and happy, resulting in the birth of eight children. This is somewhat ironic given that the play's main character, Anna, falls in love with (and eventually weds) a man of whom her father vehemently dissaproves. (But the play was written in the early 1920s.) Here’s one more bit of cool and timely trivia.
