Charlie meets Gandhi in London, September 22nd, 1931

The Mahatma had never heard of Charlie Chaplin before this meeting. The two icons discussed the impact of the machine age before Gandhi invited his guest to stay for evening prayers. Charlie left with the impression of a "realistic, virile-minded visionary with a will of iron."
