    The film is Charlie Chaplin's first sound film. It was taken during the darkest period of Hitler's reign. It is full of pungent satire and ugly. The film won the 13th (1941) Oscar nominations for Best Film, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, and Best...

    It is the most classic movie of "Identity Exchange" and the most memorable movie during World War II. If there is no such speech, the evaluation of the film must be ordinary: just use that speech to end, the jokes in the first half seem to be more than just a political mimicry that is still popular on TV seventy years...

    [The Great Dictator] is a model of political film. It first entertained everyone with light-hearted action comedy and pungent political satire, and then preached to the audience with strong humanistic discourse in the end, calling on them to unite. Chaplin split his role as a tramp into two, which perfectly proved that the realization of power requires words. How pantomimely funny the little Jewish barber is, the evil Henkel knew how to use bird language to incite hatred. The end of the film is...

    7.5 Regardless of political reality, as far as the work of art is concerned, the humanistic sentiment of this film can be described as a perfect score. The final speech must give everyone a reason to fight for...

    The hatred of dictatorship lies in the desire for freedom. The logical contradiction of dictators lies in the fact that they know that they cannot be in power forever but insist on immersing themselves in the illusion they have created to seek an eternal empire. This is the illusion provided by greed, ambition, and the desire for control, because they themselves are also illusions. Fart ass: This is Chaplin playing Hitler, this is clearly Hitler playing...

    The speech at the end of the film is what I admire. It is full of sentiment and humanitarianism without a trace of...

    Too beautiful! It turns out that the ancients and I laughed a little and figured it out, and laughed to death! The soundtrack is also great, and the whole story goes with the finishing touch! In addition, I feel more and more that the tragic color of comedians is stronger than that of tragic...

    The funny action language belongs to the silent film era, and the passionate anti-dictatorship speech belongs to the sound film, because the little description of the film in the biography of "Chaplin" stimulates the impulse to watch the film completely, which can be the most rampant in the Nazi dictatorship. At that time, under the pressure of fascism, to shoot such a work, I had to admire Chaplin's courage and justice. ——"The dictator will die, and the rights they have taken from the people...

    The first sound film written, directed and acted by Chaplin. A basket of laughter, always closing his mouth from ear to ear when watching the film. The final speech is very contagious, and it is still loud and loud today. Chaplin played two roles, interpreting the simple and kind-hearted Jewish barber and the head of the sly inner man to life. Although the film is not as laughable as "City Lights" and "Modern Times", it has become a classic because of the perfect combination of comedy and...

  • Adenoid Hynkel: How was it?

    Garbitsch: The speech?

    Adenoid Hynkel: Yes.

    Garbitsch: Very good. I thought your reference to the Jews might have been more violent.

    Adenoid Hynkel: What?

    Garbitsch: We've got to rouse the people's anger. At this time, violence against the Jews might take the public's mind off it's stomach.
