I think the funniest thing about the ban of the Death of Stalin is was 1: The majority of Russians were willing to watch it and 2. Those who did loved it and saw nothing wrong (Some theaters rebelled against the ban and were unfortunately punished by the government).

Who wants to go back to Stalin? Seriously! He was an even bigger butcher than Hitler! He is the reason why Russians were so unprepared for the Nazi invasion in 1941. That falls squarely on him and his paranoia! It can only be human beings that are genuinely that stupid! I hope i make at least a little bit of sense! :)

@@gabrielvinicius2409 Indeed they did! But that is not a credit that should be given to Stalin. The USA and other allied nations poured huge resources into the USSR to combat the Axis. The Soviet people worked tirelessly, and rose to that task. The Soviet people operated mostly under a fear of Stalin because of the purges, and the ever looming threat of more purges that even his most trusted advisors were not immune to. The USSR was an empire built on fear. Initially, when the Axis came into the Ukraine, they saw Nazi Germany as liberators. That is how bad Stalin was! If Hitler hadn't been so insane himself, he could have gained a valuable ally there. These people are not idealists, they are butchers! But i am so tired of Hitler taking all the wrap while Stalin gets a pass, when he was equally horrible. Are either of these people who you want operating your country in supreme authority?

The next day he felt bad and took me to the movies. That year was when Deadpool, Zootopia and Kung Fu Panda 3 was out in theaters. I chose Deadpool, and then i completely got uncomfortable because of the violence and nudity in the film and so we left before it ended. I was 15 when i saw it and zootopia and kung fu panda 3 will always remind me of what year that was. To this day, it was my worst birthday ever.

But "The Great Dictator" was not Charlie Chaplin's first sound movie, nor even his first talkie, nor even the first where Charlie Chaplin's character's voice is heard. Modern Times was filmed as a silent film, but it was released with sound integrated with the film (thus making it a talkie), and Chaplin sings a nonsensical song in gibberish. The Great Dictator only gets the credit of his first talkie since it was written with dialogue and recorded at the 24 FPS that talkies were filmed in at that time.
