Chaplin´s satire is a Masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 10/10 (4 November 2001)

This film was made 1940 and then you could not show the madness of Hitler as it really was and Chaplin himself says that if he knew that the Nazi´s were that evil he could never have done this film.But Chaplin can show Hitler´s madness when he plays the VERY crazy and evil dictator Hynkel in the country Tomania.

It´s a very strange film that is both a hilarious slapstick comedy and a satire.He plays two roles in this: a Jewish Barber that is almost as the tramp and The crazy dictator Hynkel.It also includes some of Chaplin´s best moments:The barber scene(it´s almost as good as the famous scene in "the gold rush".The Dance of the rolls)and the speech is easily one of Chaplin´s best moments.5/5
