Review of The Great Dictator (1940) by Amit J — 31 Aug 2008
Charles chaplin had said that had he known about the true horrors of concentration camps, he would never have made the great dictator. it is difficult to agree with him. it's all very well to have schindler's list.
..but films like this one do what they cannot: they look Evil straight in the face and laugh at it, tell it to go screw itself; more importantly, they are symbolic of Art's- and Humor's- triumph.
