Charlie & Paulette in The Great Dictator (1940).
Chaplin’s left middle finger was caught in the slamming gate and broken during the filming of this scene (one of the few times he was ever injured while making a film). Paulette immediately called for a car to take Charlie to the hospital. After a being ignored for a long period of time, she told someone that Mr. Chaplin had to be seen immediately. A doctor came out, looked at his finger, peered at him closely, and then apologized, saying that when they arrived in costume and make-up, everyone thought they were “a couple of Hollywood jokers having a little fun at our expense.” Evidently, the injury remains in the film, but Chaplin did not react to it while the cameras were rolling. If you look closely, you can see him favoring his hand, as well as the bandage on the finger, in later scenes.
