Charlie Chaplin, like many immigrants from Great Britain, moved to America for a chance to benefit from the boom that was occurring in America in the 20th century. As a child, the son of two artists, he found his calling in theater and cinema. Without saying a word, his films broke barriers in a very separate time in the United States and around the world. ,characters like the Tramp immediately became a classic. but his most controversial film to date is The Great Dictator. When the great dictator's release was scheduled, most Americans were isolationists due to the financial and human costs. Any kind of form of interventionist media was almost forbidden by the people, the churches and a small part of Hollywood. An organization was created to limit and control any Hollywood political propaganda called PCA and they defined “propaganda is the expression of opinions or actions carried out deliberately by individuals or groups with the aim of influencing the opinions or actions of other individuals or groups for predetermined ends through psychological manipulation.” The great dictator tried to avoid being labeled as propaganda, but Chaplin failed miserably, although he managed to escape the CPA's grasp by using comedy to sweeten the propaganda through the action of a character called Hynkle, who has a similar resemblance to Hitler, who downplayed the strength of the army and humanized this great dictator called. The emotional response is morale building for the United States and its ally a sense of security and confidence on the home front. The final speech was pure propaganda, but out of sheer brilliance Chaplin delivered the speech from a neutral angle abandoning his Hynkel character, who automatically draws the... center of the card... f wacky like "chees un crackers" mixed with German. As his speech becomes very inedible and more aggressive, the translator says "his excellency has just said something about the Jewish people." It is at this point that you will see Hynkel's relationship with the Jews. Chaplin manages to portray Hynkel the great dictator himself as a man who can do nothing right. The propaganda cannot be hidden when it comes to the final speech that Chaplin gives at the end of the film. Although Charlie Chaplin tries to avoid propaganda by “calling for universal peace rather than a specific course of action.” But Chaplin failed miserably because he went out of character to convince a group of people to rebel against dictators. The only known dictators were Hynkel and Benzino. "With the promise of these things the brutes have come to power... the dictators free themselves but enslave the people “.
