neutral · AI labelView post →85 years ago, Charlie Chaplin delivered his famous speech at the end of his first film with dialogue - The Great Dictator. He spoke these timeless words as Nazis rose to power, and the drums of war beat in Europe, echoing across the world. As relevant, and necessary to hear, today as ever #Resist
neutral · AI labelView post →In 1940 Charlie Chaplin spoke for the first time on film in the movie The Great Dictator. The Speech at the end was more Charlie talking to the people of the time. It is considered one of the greatest speeches in film history. It seems relevant again. youtu.be/J7GY1Xg6X20?...
neutral · AI labelView post →"This is a still from Charles Chaplin’s 1940 film, THE GREAT DICTATOR. It occurs at approximately the 1:59:32 mark. If our home releases and prints are different, the most important context for this essay is that we discuss the split second before Charles Chaplin speaks the film’s final speech."
neutral · AI labelView post →What do you think is the best speech in film? Sean's speech in Good Will Hunting? Chaplain's passionate monologue in the Great Dictator? When William Wallace roused his troops in Braveheart? Maybe Glengarry Glen Ross or A Few Good Men or- Me: Wrong. It's James Earl Jones in the rad dragon movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →In 1940, with fascism raging across Europe, the world's most famous silent movie actor spoke out. Five years later the shameless liar Charlie Chaplin mocked in The Great Dictator, who persuaded a third of Germans that whoever opposed him was their enemy, celebrated his "winning" by killing himself.
neutral · AI labelView post →Here we are. It's grim, but I will laugh at him every single day I am drawing breath. Seriously. Chaplin mocked Hitler with "The Great Dictator" film. So, @gregolear.bsky.social and I will be breaking Trump down as the Dumb Dictator. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3glY...
neutral · AI labelView post →I have bad news for you, wannabe satirist: You are not Charlie Chaplin. Also: Chaplin regretted making the movie. "Had I known the actual horrors of the German concentration camps, I could not have made The Great Dictator; I could not have made fun of the homicidal insanity of the Nazis."
neutral · AI labelView post →This speech was delivered in 1940 in Charlie Chaplin's movie, "The Great Dictator." Hitler's cruel & murderous Nazi regime was in full-swing, & Charlie Chaplin's speech was not only stunning in that he had never spoken in any of his movies, the force and urgency with which he spoke was palpable.
neutral · AI labelView post →It feels like time to share this again. Charlie Chaplin’s final speech in The Great Dictator is arguably the greatest monologue ever committed to film. I’ve seen it dozens of times & cry every single time. youtu.be/J7GY1Xg6X20?...
positive · AI labelView post →In the 1940 movie The Great Dictator, Charlie Chaplin gave a speech against fascism that is just as relevant today as it was back then. Right-wing Americans don't recognize fascism, even when it's right in front of their face, because they have been brainwashed by fascists their entire lives.
neutral · AI labelView post →I was thinking about how science and art got us through the worst of the pandemic, and how it seemed like Hamilton got many of us through the first Trump Regime. Is there a movie similar to Chaplin’s The Great Dictator that satirizes The Regime anywhere?
neutral · AI labelView post →One of the greatest speeches ever made from one of the best films ever made. Charlie Chaplin in 'The Great Dictator'. A film everyone should see. Filmed in 1939, premiered in 1940. youtu.be/J7GY1Xg6X20?...

neutral · AI labelView post →The political messages in Charlie Chaplin’s films are as relevant as ever (and kids love them). His speech at the end of his Hitler spoof the Great Dictator (1940), is deeply moving. It was the first time audiences heard the silent film star speak. #MomSky 🍿 #FilmSky 1/4
neutral · AI labelView post →Buddy do not compare posting "HAHA DRUMPF IS A POOPY PANTS" on social media to "The Great Dictator", a full on fucking film satirizing and criticizing despots. Come the fuck on.
neutral · AI labelView post →Times were also dark in 1940. When faced with the creeping threat of Nazism Charlie Chaplin made the satire the "The Great Dictator." As his first sound film, we hear his voice deliver a speech that has resonated over decades:

neutral · AI labelView post →Watching the Great Dictator by Charlie Chaplin from 1940. Someone needs to create a movie like this that makes fun of the endless buffoonery and self-importance of Trump, Putin, Netanyahu and their cronies. It is soooo target rich. Come on people that know how to make movies - let's do this!

neutral · AI labelView post →No anti-Nazi movie will reach the heights of The Great Dictator, which depicts Nazi hate as mere angry gibberish (since they reject the grounds of discourse) and which climaxes in a declaration of freedom eloquently delivered by Chaplin's long-silent Tramp character. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7GY...
neutral · AI labelView post →Charlie Chaplin’s speech in THE GREAT DICTATOR (1940) got cheers from a packed house at Film Forum NYC today. And it was a family screening, so we also had kids giggling at the slapstick. If this isn’t an endorsement for seeing old movies on the big screen, I don’t know what is. #FilmSky

neutral · AI labelView post →Charlie Chaplin made the Hitler mocking film, "The Great Dictator", in 1940 using his own money because none of the Hollywood studios were comfortable irking the Germans as they had financial relations with them. The film is said to be one of the greatest works of Charlie Chaplin

Charlie Chaplin, 1940, at the end of his movie, "The Great Dictator," makes a final point and warning to the entire world about the dictator Hitler. It applies to Trump, MAGA, & Project 2025 today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcgl...
unlabelledView post →It’s hard to overstate how bold a movie The Great Dictator was for its time. Hitler’s army invaded Poland six days before Chaplin began principal photography, and the movie was written before the war broke out.
