First of all, this is one of the greatest movies ever made. What is lost by viewing this speech as a clip and out of context is that fundamentally the movie is a critique of power, language, music and the arts and how they are utilized and exploited for ideology. Notice how his speech for democracy is still held in the costume of fascism and the crowd reacts as though they are at a fascist rally, which looks a lot like a democratic rally, or a monarchic rally etc...I am NOT saying that the movie is pro-fascist, in fact it is a digging attack against fascism and its own power "language" or style of propaganda, however the movie as a whole is suspicious of power, the only ones who are not suspicious as individual characters are the lower class working folks, individuals without power. However, as the crowds roar at the end, and the powerless amass into a giant crowd, into the community of a NATION, they become power and the irony of the mixing of power and ethics and how one corrupts the other becomes so clear. Charlie Chaplin's speech at the end of this movie is a stirring call to democracy, good will and caring, however surrounding our dearest of tramps are the mechanisms of tyranny. On a side note Charlie Chaplin released this movie fundamentally as a critique of Hitler and was black listed in Hollywood because the film was released in the 30's when Hitler was super popular in the U.S. and even graced the cover of TIME magazine for his economic progress in Germany during that time. Also, there is a scene where the Hitler character danced around with a giant inflated globe that is hilarious!!!!! I guess you can tell I like this movie

Charlie Chaplin. What a speech. :') <3

This one's great too, IMO. It's a compilation as well, but I felt like it was really well done.
