Charlie Chaplin - The Great Dictator

Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator is a classic film often considered to be the first major feature-length comedic satire. It follows Adenoid Hynkel, a laughably idiotic dictator in an unrecognisable country that he runs with an iron fist. For this performance, Chaplin was both actor and director, giving audiences deep insight into his comedic genius. His satirical take on fascism is still relevant today, proving this timeless movie has endured the test of time. Filled with brilliant gags and Chaplinesque physical comedy, it offers endless entertainment and many important social lessons that make it as meaningful to watch now as ever.
