About the year 1900, a small, dark-haired hot boy named Charlie Chaplin was often seen waiting outside the back entrance of London theatre. He looked thin and hungry. He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance; above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn't get work and so he wandered about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had no parents.
But twenty years later, Chaplin became the greatest, best-known, and best-loved comedian in the world. Any visitor to the cinema must have seen some of Chaplin's filmstrips(胶片). People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until the tears ran down their faces. Even people who don't understand English can enjoy Chaplin's films though most of them are silent. It isn't what he says that makes us laugh. His comedy doesn't depend upon words and languages. It depends upon little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world. Acting out, without words, common human situations plays an important part in the dances and plays of many countries. It's kind of world language.
Chaplin lived most of his life in America and died in Switzerland on Christmas Day, 1977, at the age of eighty-eight. The world were astonished at the news of the death and burst into sadness.

The Americans believe that anybody can become President of the United States. In a recent Hollywood comedy, that is exactly what happens.
Dave Kovic, played by Kevin Kline, is a kind hearted man who runs a business that finds people jobs. He leads a typical(典型的) American way of life, except for one thing—he looks exactly like the President, Bill Mitchell. In fact, the only thing that makes him different from the nation's leader is that he is very nice!
The President has started using look alikes during some public appearances. Dave is offered a chance to “serve his country” by becoming one. However, things go wrong. The President becomes very ill and Dave ends up acting as the President forever.
Director Ivan Reitman, who made the popular and successful comedies like Twins, Ghostbusters and Legal Eagles, could have gone for easy laughs by making fun of the American government. Instead, Dave is an attractive comedy about an ordinary man in extraordinary situations. Kevin Kline gives a double performance as Dave and the President, and Sigourney Weaver is at her best as his First Lady. The love story that develops between her role and Dave is a real classic(经典).
The film is 100% American. However, if you've ever felt that anybody could do a better job running the country than the people in power, then you'll enjoy Dave!
