The film tells the story of the First World War, when Singal (Charlie Chaplin), the dictator of the Kingdom of Tomania, took the stage. His massive expansion led to continuous war and people's livelihood. Moreover, he carried out conspiracy policies to incite people to hostility and hatred against the Jews, and plunged the Jewish people into dire straits. Charlie (Charlie Chaplin), a Jewish barber who was drafted into the army, is even more doomed under such a high-pressure policy. When Charlie escaped the border, he was mistaken by the army stationed here for dictator Singal, and he took the opportunity to make a "Fight for Freedom" speech. This film is Charlie Chaplin's first sound film. It was filmed during the darkest period of Hitler's rule. It is full of spicy satire and vilification of him. The film won 5 nominations for the 13th (1941) Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenwriter, and Best Music.
