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.

The Great Dictator (1940), directed by and starring Charlie Chaplin, is a satirical comedy that mocks Adolf Hitler and fascism.

Chaplin plays dual roles: a ruthless dictator named Adenoid Hynkel and a kind-hearted Jewish barber, who looks just like the dictator.

As Hynkel plots world domination, the barber, mistaken for the dictator, delivers a powerful speech advocating peace and unity.

The film blends slapstick humor with poignant political commentary, offering a timeless critique of tyranny and intolerance.
