Final Speech of The Great Dictator by Charlie Chaplin (1940)

The Great Dictator by Charlie Chaplin is my favorite movie of all time. I love the way he decimates fascists with a mixture of ridicule and grace (the scene with the globe comes to mind). Here is a link to the text of the final speech. The speech would not seem out of place or time if it were delivered in the halls of Congress right now (with all the President's men in attendance).
