Acting dynasties\u2014like any kind of dynasty\u2014rarely produce talents as great as Geraldine Chaplin, Charlie\u2019s daughter, who ended up a sui generis figure in cinema history herself. Writer Andr\xe9a R. Vaucher and David Bloom joined Chaplin at the Panama Film Festival to discuss her incredible career; working with David Lean, Carlos Saura, Robert Altman, Alan Rudolph, and J. A. Bayona; her teenage years as a ballerina; and, of course, her father. A few of Paul Newman\u2019s best pranks also crop up. A Words & Deeds production; produced, engineered, and directed by David Bloom.
