Damn, phil, not only did he kick the mad message into a cocked hat, but he did it with exactly the same what I would have til just now called inimitable style that is the one thing that one can point to and say, "that's the one thing Hitler did well. If only he'd used his powers for good."

I am assuming that's the climax of Chaplin's "Great Dictator". Mind blowing stuff.

Still, it's the hat.

Thanks phil. Really.

Seriously, though, as he got going good, doesn't it start to get really reminiscent of the body English (Deutsch?) Ol' One Nut put on in Triumph of the Will? Charlie nailed him good. (Is that Chaplin? or Keaton?)

I thought that's why Hitler had a tash like that was because he was a Charlie Chaplin fan.
