Don't dare to call it a "movie review", it's just my viewing experience.
Although "The Great Dictator" is a comedy, its true core is tragedy. With World War II as the background of the story, as a Jew, Charlie Chaplin must have hoped to express his dissatisfaction with the dictatorship and his pursuit and belief in democracy, freedom and humanity in the process of completing this film. There are many foreign-language films that reflect the theme of World War II, but this one is a...

This is one of the best movies I've seen this weekend. Different from Chaplin's other works, at least it has the power of language. However, Chaplin's works are all about the times put reality in it, supplemented by humor. This should be regarded as Zhou Xingchi's mentor for works such as "Journey to the West" and "Kung Fu". That's what many of my stage plays and the like hope to achieve. This kind of work, which guarantees depth and interest, is suitable for all ages, and it is not...

Voice makes this work, not simple.
What do you think a movie is? This work, I think, is beyond what I've always understood about cinema. For a long time, I haven't come across a point of laughter worth laughing and belly laughing. Here, I still can't help but see Hickler and Musso, the dictator brothers, in order to prove their strengths and weaknesses, from the low bench, to the super spicy mustard, to the big fight. For a long time, I haven't heard such a "deafening" speech appear in a play. This is not a movie, but a...

The teacher asked us to continue the 1000-word ending of "The Great Dictator"
"Soldiers, for the sake of democracy, let's unite!" Although schultz asked Charlie to make speeches that despised other races and hated Jews, Charlie still couldn't do it. In fact, he knew that his choice this time was likely to He felt very guilty about schultz for putting him and schultz behind bars or even losing their lives, but if he could do it all over again, he felt he would choose to say so. The world has been shrouded in dictatorship, resentment, hatred, and blood for too long....

1. The Years—The Eve of World War II in America
The Great Dictator is a film directed and starred by Charlie Chaplin. Premiered in 1940, it poignantly satirized Nazism and Adolf Hitler. The climax of the play is at the end, when he openly calls for a political confrontation with fascism.
What makes the film special is that it was released in a time before the United States entered World War II and the United States was still on good terms with Nazi Germany. Before the panic over...

2012.9.30: Hungarian Waltz No. 5 and shave perfectly; Xihemo's handshake is funny and ironic; the last wonderful speech is the hatred of dictatorship and the call for peace, full of humanitarian power; the spirit of the master is great Yes, to stand up at the most critical time of the whole world, to do everything in his power, to declare war on the dictatorship, and to pay tribute to peace. For this alone, the master is worthy of our eternal respect.
