Looking Back at Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator
As a bit of a change up today, we decided to take a step back from our usual nerdy topics & look back at a revolutionary piece of cinematic history: Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator. While it may be a tall order, we have decided to use its 80th Anniversary (technically, it was last Thursday) to give our thoughts on the movie itself & our views on its place in cinematic history.

Does it hold up against other sci-fi films now? Find out on today’s edition of Dallas Geek!
