AMIT BISWAS I just said same in other clip “ modern times” , is king of comedy tragedy 🎭🤹🏻♂️👨🏻🔧👌🥀🥀🥀😒😔
Or we are that much behind.....
It was literally a hit piece against Hitler in 1940. 🤦♂️

As a german, I can 100% confirm that those are accurate translations
Can you translate pls?
@@Lordboring1478 It's gibberish though there are some German words in there (when he talks about how great the army is he uses "groß" which means "great")
I guess the words was in tomanian...
Grob smile?
When you watch the movie you can easely spot the Germans. The people laughing
Imagine mocking Hitler while still he’s alive and powerful. Chaplin had balls of steel.
Truly
Not really. He was safe in America. It was unsafe to show it in Europe.
@@HooDatDonDar he did this film at a time where the US was still in neutral relations with Nazi Germany. He was originally dismissed and perceived as a communist sympathizer.
Hitler apparently loved the movie so much he watched it twice in private lol
Fun fact! The American government had suspected this film was actually made about *them* , promoting communism due to Chaplin having ties with it. He had to flee to Switzerland in 1952 only to come back 20 years later in 1972, to receive an honorary Academy Award five years before his death where he received the longest standing ovation in Oscar history (it was 12 minutes long!!).
Mad respect to him speaking gibberish with such an Austro-German accent.
what? that was not german??
@@maskahleo No, it’s gibberish with some German words here and there.

@@bigpoppa328 Hes referring to a different very inspiring speech from the end of the film.
@@MBM1117727 I saw that one, but the video is about an other "speech".
@@bigpoppa328 what that's 1940s movie what did you expect aliens or cheesy visual effects 😂
Fun fact: hitler and Chaplin were born 4 days apart in 1889
now that’s a coincidence
And they shared the same mustache!
Charlie Chaplin Jr. wrote about his father: Their destinies were poles apart. One was to make millions weep, while the other was to set the whole world laughing. Dad could never think of Hitler without a shudder, half of horror, half of fascination. "Just think", he would say uneasily, "he's the madman, I'm the comic. But it could have been the other way around."
Fun fact: Hitler and Stalin were both fans of Charlie
@Drin792 which is ironic since both were extreme antisemitic
Keep in mind that although this film was released in 1940, Chaplin began work on it in 1937 when many Americans, such as Henry Ford and Charles Lindberg, were vocal admirers and supporters of Hitler. It took courage to make this film.
There was even an american nazi party, influenced by Germany, but it soon disappeared.
@@julioalbertoherrera1339 The America First movement of the 1930's not only was pro-Nazi, but took its orders from Berlin. The movement did fall apart upon the US entry into WWII. But there still is an American Nazi party today. They show up from time to time at right wing rallies. They were the ones shouting, "Jews will not replace us," at the Unite the Right Rally in Virginia five years ago.
@@MFPhoto1 the real nazis are either very old or dead the higher rank ones where the worst
You not Hitler was
Charlie Chaplin truly is the G.O.A.T
That is the best impersonation of Hitler I have ever seen. The one. The only. Charlie Chaplin.
Even better than the original.
What do you mean impersonation?? Who's Charlie Chaplin? I only saw Fuhrer in this video.

Chaplin was the only guy who could sound like he was speaking German without actually speaking German
One became a mass murderer, the other a comedy-defining genius. Chaplin later said he'd have given anything to know what Hitler thought of the film. Also, the immediate silence following the hand gestures is a hysterical take on the psychotic grip of dictators.
I can tell you what Herr Hiler tought about this film. Herr Hiler wanted chaplin DEAD.
Is it just me or this like Gibberish
@@bowserheadteacher i think its the while point. To chaplin what he saw it as giberish and took liberties with it. ie. He took the p*ss out of the nazi's.
@@bowserheadteacher but intresting fact though, when chaplin gives speach the person on his imidiate left or on the right as you watch film, is Herr Hitlers English nephew. The one with the thin mushtach.
both born not only in the same year and month, also in the same week, only 4 days difference, and Chaplin himself has said, maybe all would become different, then I would become the dictator and he would become the comedian (not so unrealistic, because Hitler was also one talented actor) this quote from Chaplin himself is to hear in the documentation (like a making of) with the title "the tramp and the dictator" oh, and btw, - Hitler saw this movie, even more than one time (that his office has ordered him, even two times, is reported), but, we don't know, has he also laugh about himself, I think, yes, he has, if not, why his office has ordered it twice ^^

It's amazing how Chaplin's approximate Hitler's speech patterns and mannerisms. No doubt he studied newsreels of Hitler's speeches.
Not to take away from Chaplins impersonation, because it is incredible, but he did have a significant advantage as Hitler based most of his public mannerism on common techniques used by actors at the time. Including how high pitch his voice was and his strange pronunciation of certain words. This was done so he could be better understood by microphones at the time. And/or that he was rather close to causing damage to his vocal chords, depending on how far down the speculations about Hitlers health rabbit hole you want to go
This movie was made in 1939, released in 1940. Chaplin totally understood Hitler's threat to humanity. And made this brilliant film to emphasis this threat....total genius....
I think in 1939 it was already pretty obvious that Hitler was a threat.
"Sir Garbage" The man called Göbbels, was really garbage.
I know right, perfect name. And perfect actor as well
Garbage in this film is the interior minister. So he's not quite exactly Gobbels, I think.
@@greenhillburma Yes that would point to W.Frick or H.Himmler

This guy received the longest standing ovation ever! 12 minutes long without stopping thanks to the open speech against fascism and nuclear weapons.
Hardly. It was thanks to his comedic genius and the guilt that US named him communist and cast him out of the country.
Pretty sure nuclear weapons weren’t a thing in 1940
@@cosmologicalturtle9528 Nuclear weapons were definitely a thing when Chaplin's re-entry permit was revoked while he was out of the country in September of 1952.

this reminds me of that an episode of The Office when Pam was the only one who dressed up for Halloween(as Chaplin) and said, "I can't even take off my hat, because then I'm Hitler"
World history would have been different if Herren Hynkel, Herring and Garbage were in charge.
Definitely. But we need to know that the political movement of Hitler arose only because of the consequences of the First World War.
And Himler too don't forguet about him, he made hitler a god to the german because germany worshiped a jewish god (jesus). They couldn't kill jews wile worshiping a jewish god
@Adolf Hitler u stupid s dictator
Garbitsch, Herr Garbitsch Always makes me laugh🤣
As a German, his translations are on point.
Chaplin confused the hell out of KZhead's English translator.
Sublime. And Charlie permits himself a pretty risky tumble down that flight of stairs! Well handled.
When Hitler was holding a speach to his citizens, he was always shouting and speaking in a stacato way. Its very rarely there are recordings of him speaking in a normal way, and that is what Chaplin in a brilliant way jokes about. He mixes Schnitzel mit der Sauerkraut together with Blitz and Straffen and uses a lot of u'es.
I think there is only one recording of Hitler talking normally
Reason is, they didn't use electric amplifiers and had to shout in order to get heard.
@@hans-joachimbierwirth4727 , no, this was not the reason, why Hitler talked in this way...

Dead end. Hahaha
I love Charlie Chaplin from Sudan Africa ❤❤🇸🇩
Lol ! He's a Jew! (real name, Israel Thornstein) trust me he certainly didn't love Muslims and Africans. This film was an attack on a political revolution that was trying to pull Germany out of the ruinous situation she found herself in the 1930's. A bit like when you were at school... all the other kids had to pull down those who excelled in class. That's who Chaplin represented, the jealous resentful types. All he could do was mock the achievements of others, from the luxury and security of the lifestyle he enjoyed.

Did anyone else die of laughter at “Tighten die belten!” ?
In 5:16 i hear something like Europe and blitzkrieg, and then the translator says "has nothing but peace in his heart" LOL
He's mostly talking gibberish, with some things coincidentally being a word and others being words for food. I think Chaplins intention was to impersonate how Hitler acted, appeared, his vibe. He could've talked real german, but then he would have had to think about the content. There is a word for what Chaplin is doing here: Grammelot - an art form established in theatre.
Chaplin had obviously studied newsreels of the dictator to promote the accuracy of his performance. For ex., at intervals Hitler pushed the closed fist of his right hand "down and away" for emphasis, straightening the arm; he poked his chin skyward in a certain way during transitions, gripped both sides of his belt from time to time, etc. The beefy actor who plays the Mussolini clone later in the film got "Benzino"'s public mannerisms right, also, with the deliberate emphasis in profile of his lantern jaw and the incessant, self-satisfied mugging and head-nods.
You can still always tell what's he's talking about. 25% of the words are English.
@@roberthaworth8991 God i cant stand mussolini's face. I have never seen such a puchable face in my life neither did i ever think someone's face would make me so irrationally angry
@@numalesoybea1348 True. And with English being a Germanic language, you can thankfully end up with some of those being actual German words, even if the rest of the sentence its in is nonsense.
Yes. Chaplin is a genius. He need not speak in german or call himself Hitler. Only needed to sound like German, and fake his mannerisms, and conveytge absolute power of dictators , and the absurd madness of dictatorships. And by not speaking in real German, while including words such as of food items or silly items, and interspersing with real English words, he could make audiences universally understand what he intended, to mock Hitler on his face.
1:46 my favorite moment of his speech
6:56
Years before this was made, someone commented that, when they saw a silent newsreel film of Hitler giving a speech, that they thought that this was exactly how Chaplin would have portrayed a dictator. And then Chaplin made this film. How in God's name the crew behind him are not hurting themselves watching this is beyond me.
A movie in which he made the 2 greatest speeches of the world. One in Tomanian, other in English.
Hering and Garbage XD That made my day
WAR IS SCHTONK !
DEMOKRATIE SCHTONK!
It is really hilarious that he said countless times SCHTONK but then the translation came out with a different meaning each time we said it 😂😂

@@shiprapaul2033 *stonks*
He actually got Hitlers mannerisms down pretty well
The person it is based on was a huge fan, he cut his mustache the same way. As we heard from people in his direct proximity he laughed his arse off on this one even though it was banned in the rest of the country. If you watch the pictures from the Reichskanzlei and the globe scene they are nearly identical office's pure genius.

He didn't try to speak german but reproduced Hitler expression in his speeches. Evebody understand, not the words but his emotion. Universal

Its the other way around

I started crying of laughter watching this movie for the first time, specially the gibberish speech 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 such nonsense but so damn funny
I'm watching this now on HBOMax and losing my mind. So glad this video exists. Thank you.
Hitler had a Mafia-style death list of comics who dared make fun of him. Chaplin, Jack Benny, the Three Stooges, Spike Jones and Victor Borga were all on that list!
Both Hitler and J.Edgar Hoover
4:50 "oooh the stranglishenmeta"
I can see why this man was the world's best actor.
What a courageous man for making this in 1940.This film is a materpiece.This film is an act of madness.And madness Is love.Chaplin put his Life in extreme danger making this.He 's a hero without a doubt.♥️
He was in no danger. He was in America. The film is really funny, tho, and that’s the point.
Herr Garbage made me laugh for a solid 5 mins
4:38 Does he say “sauerkraut”? Lmao
Ja
I like that among the gibberish, Chaplin actually placed some German words that fit the context, as in "sie strafen", "Bismarck", "freisprechen"
Mostly however German names for food/dishes: Wiener Schnitzel, Sauerkraut. Bismarck Hering is pickled herring. Field Marshal Herring as a parody of Hermann Göring points to a native German adviser. Allegedly a hawker known as Beldemer Lippert advertised his herrings on a market in Kastellaun as "Hering, Hering, su fett wie de Göring!" herrings, herrings, as fat as Göring! And this mocking verse spread fast among those not that enthusiastic about the ones now in power.
@@martinstock That's right and it was dangerous to make such jokes.
5:03 the best and most meaningful part. The "interpreter" didn't "translate" it, also the audience was too scared of that ethnic group and for the first time during the speech they didn't applaud until "Hitler" ordered them.
The first time I watched this I laughed so hard I cried through most of it. I'm buying it! What a classic! Adenoid?

Charlie Chaplin absolutely nailed the impersonation of Adolf Hitler right down to the finest point. The mannerisms and the powerful dynamic of his voice, it's all done so well! I loved hearing "Herring" and "Garbage", and he was even able to sneak the word "sauerkraut" into the speech. What a genius. Charlie did have some serious guts, though, to make fun of the Nazi regime. But even in the toughest days, we need some comedy relief. Bravo, Sir Chaplin! 😁😁
I laughed at liberty stunk ,,democracy stunk,,😂😂😂😂😂
Don´t forget the words at the start of his speech : " Hürtensekt an´Wiener Schnitzel " !!! 😂😂😂🤣
Reminds me of the ruling Kim family in North Korea.

Hallo zusammen, als junger Marokkaner 🇲🇦, der sich für allgemeine Kultur interessiert, teile ich mit Ihnen einige Zusammenfassungen und Ideen als allgemeine Kultur über den berühmten Komiker Charlie Chaplin, der sich durch seine Stummkomödie auszeichnete, frei von Künstlichkeit und nah an der Herz. Seine Gesichtszüge waren immer traurig und er konnte die Welt zum Lachen bringen. Die Menschen in einer Zeit kannten Kriege, Klassenungleichheit, Armut und die Probleme des 20. Jahrhunderts, und Charlie hatte Sprüche und rührende Worte, darunter (wenn Sie... konnte nicht über den gleichen Witz lachen, warum solltest du wegen der gleichen Sorge zurückgehen und trauern und weinen) und auch (ich gehe im Regen, damit niemand meine Tränen sehen kann) und unter den Menschen erkannte er Einstein mit ihrem Witz , sind Charlie Chaplin und Nikola Tesla, und ich möchte abschließend sagen, dass Charlie in den vergangenen Jahren als sehr professioneller Komiker die Welt unterhalten hat
I have never laughed so hard in my life.
Even in his gibberish, Charlie Chaplin was more articulate than president who claims have the best words.
