We have seen a series of numbers in history books. They represent the year, the time of the war, and the number of deaths. In a few words, a century has passed. We also know that in 1940, at the beginning of World War II, the Axis powers of Germany, Japan and Italy were in full swing, and the racist Nazi Party was raging in Europe. People watched the appeasement policy declared bankruptcy, and it was dark. Just this year, Chaplin's "The Great Dictator" was released. When he was confused, he passionately sang the song of hope in the movie, encouraging people to go on with hope. The Great Dictator was Chaplin's first sound film. The whole film satirizes the Nazis in Germany in the form of metaphor, and shows that tragic era in the form of comedy. The protagonist is a Jewish barber who took part in World War I, where he rescued a flight captain, but was injured and lost his memory when the plane made an emergency landing. At the end of the First World War, the country T surrendered unconditionally, and the barber was sent to the hospital for treatment. He thought that only a few weeks had passed, but the First World War was over, "Schickler" was in power, Germany was shrouded in an atmosphere of terror, and the stormtroopers had a bad attitude towards Jews , smashing and looting. The barber slips back from the hospital one day, unknowingly clashing with the stormtroopers and encountering the help of the heroine Hannah in the process. Finally, the flight captain rescued by the barber on the battlefield appears and helps the barber, and they have a secret relationship. Like Hitler in history, Schickler was arbitrary, excitable, and passionate in his speeches. Funny how he looks like a Jewish barber - an Aryan racial supremacist, like a Jew. In order to obtain the sponsorship of Jewish merchants, he allowed the Jews to live a good life. Just when they thought that the situation was calm and they could live a good life, Heckler, who had repeatedly failed to get help from the Jews, became angry and persecuted the Jews even more. The flight captain who had helped the Jews also Wanted, the barber he helped is also on the wanted list. In the end, both of them were caught, and Hannah and the landlord's family moved to Country O - a place they thought was peaceful. Heckler was busy with his imperial dream and met the arrogant N. There were many jokes between the two, but in the end, the two negotiated and Heckler decided to invade the O country. When he was out hunting, the flight captain in the criminal camp escaped with the barber. Heckler, who accidentally fell into the water, was taken back as the barber, and the barber was taken as Heckler. When the Nazi comrades clamored for racism and asked the barber to speak on the stage, the captain told him that according to what they said, they would have hope of living, and the barber was "inspired by hope" and published a famous speech about hope. The speech, the whole film ends here. This WWII The subject matter of the film is slightly different. First, he was released at the beginning of World War II, and the war situation was not conducive to the non-Axis countries. The United States, on the other side of the ocean, has not yet been attacked by Pearl Harbor, and claims to remain neutral to the outside world. Second, although this film reflects the Jewish social situation. But unlike "Life is Beautiful" or "Schindler's List", it is so painful. There is no depiction of a concentration camp here. Chaplin maintains his usual comic style. The whole film is a comedy story. At the same time, it also maintains the story style of Chaplin's optimistic narrative, always with a positive and optimistic attitude until the end. , ended with a speech titled "Hope". This film is a pearl. Under the situation at that time, he can still face all the misery with optimism. He has also become a microcosm of people's mental outlook in that period of history, a different epitome. He can bring people to feel the era more realistically. Just as "All Quiet on the Western Front" made the world understand why war weariness pervaded after the First World War, and why the appeasement policy happened, this film made people feel the hope of some people at that time in a desperate situation. Although the film is an exaggerated comedy, people are standing still, and those people were alive. I like Chaplin, not only because of his lovely and wonderful performances, not only because he narrated wonderful and legendary stories, not only because he brought great films of an era, but also because he is the sender of the voice of the era, "Modern Times" and "City Lights", he satirizes the materialization of the times with comedy, and also tells the bitterness and joy of low-level people with comedy, as well as the hope for life, as is "The Great Dictator", he uses movies to support He told the Jews in suffering, and also told the best hope for the future through movies. Finally, let me post that monologue. It was the most powerful and moving voice in the war-torn era. .

Unfortunately, I don't want to be emperor, that's not what I do. I neither want to rule anyone nor conquer anyone. If possible, I would love to help all people, Jewish and non-Jewish, black and white. We all need to help each other. That's how it should be. We should build our lives on the happiness of others, not on the suffering of others. Let us not hate each other and despise each other. There are enough places in the world for all people to live. The earth is fertile, and it can provide food and clothing for everyone. The road of life can be free and beautiful, but unfortunately we have lost our way. Greed poisons the human soul, builds walls of hatred all over the world, and forces us to take the right step to suffering and massacre. We develop speed, but we isolate ourselves. Machines are supposed to create wealth, but instead they bring us poverty. When we have knowledge, we see through everything; when we learn to be smart and well-behaved, we become ruthless. We use our minds too much and our emotions too little. What we need more is not machines, but humanity. What we need more is not smart and well-behaved, but kindness and warmth. Without these things, life becomes violent, and everything is over. Airplanes and radios shorten the distance between us. The nature of these things itself is to give play to the good qualities of human beings; it requires people all over the world to love each other, and we all need to be united with each other. There are millions of people in the world today who love each other and demand that we all unite with each other. My voice is heard by millions of people in the world right now - millions of disappointed men, women, children - and they are all victims of a system that tortures people and tortures innocent people thrown into prison. I say to those who hear me, "Don't despair." We are suffering now only because those who fear human progress are venting their malice and gratifying their greed before they die. The hatred of these people will die, the dictators will die, and the power they took from the people will be returned to the people. As long as we are not afraid of death, freedom will never disappear. Warriors! Don't work for those beasts, they despise you, they enslave you, they rule you, they tell you what to do, what to think, what kind of feelings you should have! They force you to practice, limit your food, treat you as animals, and use you as cannon fodder. Don't be at the mercy of these irrational people, they are all a group of robots, with the heads of robots and the hearts of robots! But you are not machines! you It's people! You have human love in your hearts! Do not hate! Only those who are not loved are hated, and those who are not loved and have lost their reason are hated! Warriors! Do not fight for slavery! Fight for freedom! In the seventeenth chapter of the Gospel of Luke, it is written that the kingdom of God is in the hearts of men—not in the hearts of one person or a group of people, but in the hearts of all people! in your heart! You people have power - the power to create machines. Has the power to create happiness! You people have the power to build your own good life - to make life meaningful. Then - for the sake of democracy - let's fight for a new world - a world that will give everyone a chance to work - it will give young people a bright future, old age Everyone lives a stable life. Those beasts stole power with these promises. However, they are lying! They never keep their promises. They will never fulfill their promises! Dictators themselves enjoy freedom, but they keep people in slavery. Let us fight now, to free the world, to remove the barriers of nations, to remove greed, hatred, stubbornness. Let us fight for a sane world where science and progress will bring happiness to all of us. Soldiers, for democracy, let us unite! Hannah, do you hear what I'm saying? Wherever you are at the moment, look up! Look up, Hannah! The dark clouds are dissipating! The sun shines out! We are leaving the darkness and entering the light! We are entering a new world - a more lovely world where people will overcome their greed, their hatred, their cruelty. Look up, Hannah! The souls of men have grown wings, and they are finally ready to fly. They flew into the rainbow - into the radiance of hope. Look up, Hannah! Look up! It will give everyone a chance to work - it will give young people a bright future and old people a stable life. Those beasts stole power with these promises. However, they are lying! They never keep their promises. They will never fulfill their promises! Dictators themselves enjoy freedom, but they keep people in slavery.
