Charlie Chaplin: Intimate Close-Ups Charlie Chaplin: Intimate Close-Ups Charlie Chaplin: Intimate Close-Ups is a memoir by the American actress Georgia Hale which was written in the 1960s. Ten years after Hale's 1985 death, Heather Kiernan edited the manuscript and it was published in 1995 by The Scarecrow Press with a second edition published in 1999. Georgia Hale was Charles Chaplin's co-star in "The Gold Rush" in 1925, and was one of the many who romanced the actor-director. Like another Chaplin companion/co-star, Edna Purviance, she never married him, and like Purviance she maintained a relationship of varying degrees with Chaplin for a number of years.
