A group of people allegedly claiming to be from the CIA and FBI approached Charlie Chaplin at a party in the 1950s and warned him that he would be denied re-entry into the United States upon his return from a trip to London for the premier of his movie Limelight

quoting a comment from this post:<br><br>>Quote: "In 1952, a group of people claiming to be from the CIA and FBI approached Chaplin at a party and told him that, when he finished his trip to London for the premiere of Limelight in October, re-entry into the United States would be denied. Officially, it was because he allegedly had abandoned his wife and children; unofficially, he was accused on being a Communist. The US government had finally had enough with Chaplin and decided to punish him for his “disloyalty”. This was the real reason he did not return to the United States for 20 years."
