The Great Dictator - speech

http://www.hanlonsrazor.org This is the climax to the 1940 Charlie Chaplin film "The Great Dictator". While not completely applicable to anything today, I still find it very moving.

"While not completely applicable to anything today, I still find it very moving."

Are you kidding? of course it's applicable. It will always be applicable, at least until we turn ourselves into China

this is so applicable to our time. now we don't have only planes and radio but , phones , internet, tv etc... though this technology have provided us with so much help and knowledge, we have become distant from each other. I believe we have never been so alone. Thanks for this masterpiece Charlie!

I love this speech and the movie too. Chaplin was considered to be a socialist and communist, but I think he was simply a populist. He was the greatest comedy film star of the 20th Century.
