Inhalt: |
ln his notorious masterpiece The Great Dictator, CharIie Chaplin offers both a cutting caricature of AdoIf HitIer and a sly tweaking of his own comic persona. ChapIin brings his subIime physicaIity to two roIes: the cruel yet clownish "Tomanian" dictator and the kindIy Jewish barber who is mistaken for him. Featuring Jack Oakie and Paulette Goddard in stelIar supporting turns, The Great Dictator, boldIy going after the fascist Ieader before the U.S.'s officiaI entry into World War ll, is an audacious amaIgam of politics and slapstick that culminates in ChapIin's famously impassioned plea for tolerance. |
