About this quiz
The legends of classic cinema: stars of Hollywood’s golden age, a famous comedy duo, a western icon, great directors from Hollywood, Japan and India, and the record pay deals, costly flops and studio battles of their careers.
Good to know: Charlie Chaplin built his own film studio on La Brea Avenue in Hollywood in 1917–19 and made his films there for decades. The Jim Henson Company had its headquarters there from 2000 to 2024, and the site is called Chaplin Studios again.
