Paulette and Chaplin pair beautiful

Paulette Goddard, Charlie Chaplin's third wife, was the only one of his wives to become a successful movie star in her own right. Paulette Goddard was born Pauline Marion Goddard Levy in Whitestone Landing, New York, on June 3, 1911—although some records say that the year was 1910, and one account places it as 1905. Regardless, she was a beautiful child, and began to model for local department stores before debuting with Florenz Ziegfeld's Follies at the age of 13 in 1924. For three years she performed as the girl on the crescent moon in Ziegfeld's Follies, and eventually married wealthy Broadway writer Edgar James in 1927. The marriage did not last, however, and they were divorced in 1931.

Paulette Goddard had begun appearing in films, with bit parts in Berth Marks (1929) with Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, The Girl Habit (1931), The Mouthpiece (1932) and Young Ironsides (1932). One of her bigger roles was appearing as a blond "Goldwyn Girl" in the Busby Berkeley chorus of the Eddie Cantor musical The Kid from Spain (1932), as well as in Roman Scandals(1933) (alongside Lucille Ball, in her first role). In 1932, in addition to her searching for parts, she made the acquaintance of Charlie Chaplin. They quickly became 'an item,' and Chaplin cast her as The Gamine in his famous film, Modern Times (released in 1936). The couple were also secretly married about ship in 1936, while vacationing in the Orient.

Paulette Goddard began to acquire her own fame after her performance in The Women(1939). She next worked with Bob Hope in The Cat and the Canary(1939), which established Paulette as a genuine star in her own right. She won a ten year contract with Paramount Studios, and danced with Fred Astaire and co-starred with future husband Burgess Meredith in Second Chorus(1940), and with Bob Hope again in The Ghost Breakers(1940). She again co-starred with Chaplin in his most famous film, The Great Dictator(1940).

Paulette Goddard had come to feel that her career was being constrained by her marriage to Charlie Chaplin, and they were separated by 1940 and they divorced in 1942. Her career went onward, with Pot O'Gold(1941) with Jimmy Stewart and The Lady Has Plans(1942). In what may have been the pinnacle of her career, she was nominated for the Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in 1943 for her role in So Proudly We Hail!(1943). She continued making movies throughout the 1940's, including The Crystal Ball(1943) and Standing Room Only(1944) with Fred McMurray.

On May 21, 1944, Paulette Goddard married for the third time to actor and co-star Burgess Meredith. She continued her film career in Kitty(1945), The Diary of a Chambermaid(1946) with then-husband Burgess Meredith, Unconquered(1947) with Gary Cooper. Ironically, after making the films An Ideal Husband(1948) and Bride of Vengeance(1949), Paulette Goddard divorced Burgess Meredith in 1950.

In the 1950's her film career slowed down to a near halt, only making six movies in the entire decade, notably Charge of the Lancers(1964). Paulette Goddard then moved to Europe, where she met and, in 1958, married novelist Erich Maria Remarque, famous for the classic war novel "All Quiet on the Western Front." She and Erich remained happily married until his death until 1970, with only a brief return to the screen in Time of Indifference(1964).

With the exception of a television appearance -- The Snoop Sisters(1972) -- Paulette Goddard remained retired from acting until her death on April 23, 1990 of massive heart failure at her home in Ronco.

The shot at 1:28 is actually of Burgess Meredith and Paulette, they were married after she and Chaplin split

[bigbandsrock1]

Paulette was a beautiful and talented gal, and was actively concentrating on her career during those times. I think she and Charlie were probably great play mates, (I've always heard they remained 'friends' throughout it all,

BUT, ultimately Oona was the ONLY one who really gave him what he needed from a woman.

Charlie Chaplin estava sempre rodeado de mulheres bonitas.
