At the end of his film, "The Great Dictator," Chaplin delivers a speech that contains most of the elements of a sane, healthy belief system that could help heal our world. In doing so, he espouses the main Principles of Yoism (see http://www.yoism.org).

BTW, this scene was a parody of insane Hitler/Nazi rallies that Charlie studied to duplicate Hitler's style of rhetoric. To view an original (from a Nazi propaganda film), see http://www.yoism.org/?q=node/334

  • Max20854;

    just to educate you a little bit, this film was made while Chaplin was forced into exile by the American government, because of trumped up "statutory rape" charges and the McCarthy era, investigation into "Un-American Activities". The making of this film is just as much a condemnation of the Committee on Un-American Activities as it was of the Third Reich...BTW..Chaplin never took American citizenship...he was born British and died British...so NOT AMERICAN PROPAGANDA

  • Patriotism is the enemy of man

see all

  • @0stling actually this movie was made in the late 1930s circa 1937 which was BEFORE mccarthyism and BEFORE chaplin's residency was revoked in The United States of America.

  • I Thank you For Sharing. This is a must see.

  • Chaplin has a beautiful speaking voice.

  • "Trumped up" statutory rape charges? He repeatedly deflowered teenage girls. I envy him.

  • this speech I know well (and ihave it in my favorites)

    but what is a "Yoan Vision" ?

  • @koalasarekool i agree, our governments are asking us to be patriotic to a large piece of land surrounded by bodies of water.

  • This ending gives me chills and makes me tear up every time. Thanks for uploading.

  • I've looked at your yoism website. The problem that I have with it is that it is obsessively focused on Christianity, and yet it conspicuously leaves out Judaism. I've been reading a lot of history on Judaism and quite frankly, it's an abusive religion, and it begins with the worst sexual assault imaginable--circumcision. Let's see you attack that religion just like you attack other religions.

    Peace to you--from an agnostic.

  • the jews always claiming everyone is equal..... not so not so
