Chaplin, a great silent film director, actor, and musician, portrayed himself as Adolf Hitler in his first speaking film, "The Great Dictator". It may not be directly related, but it reminded me that if it made so many people laugh at the absurd angriness in this film, isn't it quite ridiculous that it isn't just a fantasy? It really happened, and it really made me reflect. I would also really recommend "The Great Dictator" to anyone that knows about the Holocaust.
