While most of our political debate in the third row end up with fisticuffs and na-na-na-na-boo-boo name calling, if this ignites another political debate, so be it. Here is an absolutely beautiful and relevant video that mashes the always relevant speech from Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator with video and images from the protests and revolutions going on throughout the world.
Viva La Resistance!
That speech from The Great Dictator is so good. It just about makes me tear up every time I hear it, and paired with this footage. Yeah. Great find, Jonathan.
Absolutely amazing Jonathan! I had tears running down my cheeks as I listened and watched. What a superbly powerful combination the speech and the footage make when brought together.
Goosebumps! Wonderful repurposing of a big-movie-speech(tm), it makes me want to rewatch The Great Dictator, actually.
And listen to some Funkadelic…Damn Eddie Hazel could play the geetar.
That’s a great combination of footage, words and music. It should be so easy…
Hell yeah. That guitar solo from Maggot Brain (the whole song basically) is possibly my favourite ever recorded.
