Alex Brook my point was that I can smell a communist from a mile away, and my opinion of their intelligence is not low, although they do seem to lack logic and accountability. Your last statement proves that, “humans are selfish in nature. It doesn’t knock his idea of communism “ You don’t blame communism its self for setting up a system that will be taken advantage of because of its construct and I say it does and it is directly to blame. Therefore in my opinion you lack the logic and accountability.
"I can smell a communist a mile away". The whole "i can smell a (insert noun here) a mile away" Thats an assumption statement that will tear down someones entire position due to lack of facts. Come on i know you can argue better than that.
It’s depressing that as time marches on, Charlie Chaplin’s speech in “The Great Dictator” (I think that’s the film’s name) becomes more and more relatable to our common day lives. Literally every line can be applied to our world today. We have so much food, but yet people are starving to death. We have machines that can literally take us to space and back, and yet people cant even get an X-Ray. We have a work force strong enough to build a home for every family and person out there, yet the number of homeless people only rise with each passing year. I’ve listened to this speech so many times, and every time, it feels like he’s talking right at me. If you didn’t know any better, you would think this was a speech he made in front of the White House or something. I did my Senior essay on this speech for my English final. The project was a 20 page essay on a work of fiction that greatly impacted us. I choose this as my project. I watch this speech at least once a month, and love it each time.
Omega, you are so right , it is all about citizen zukerburg, and cinita, you are so right, people cannot afford an x Ray or their medicines, which President will solve this problem with health care

"I want the truth!" , "You can't handle the truth!" I have wanted for the longest time to play those words with anyone😂😂😂😂 but my friends don't really know this movie, and I don't know anyone who has. All of them great speeches, but "A few good men" will forever hold a spot in my heart. I watched it when I was like 6-7, and even though I couldn't understand half of it, that final showdown between Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson transmitted so much that even then gave me chills down my spine.
_A Few Good Men_ is still my fave Tom Cruise movie as well. Yes, Nicholson is typically great here, but half of what makes his role great is the interplay during this scene with Cruise's character. Any lesser actor in either role would have completely ruined the scene, and the movie.
@@nihilist1680 I'd argue that it's normal to think we hate, but perhaps in reality that's only a lot of dislike. But to TRULY, deeply, intensely hate... I think then we'd have to abandon all empathy, which I think all humans feel to a level. You can't fully hate someone unless you get rid of that human aspect that's buried within us all, therefore it is unhuman to hate. As Mr. Chaplin says, "only the unloved and the unnatural".

@Dominus Ghaul While you're interpreting this scene correctly you're wrong with your loaded, biased conclusions.

He is showing something more universal, more important and more terrifying than just some cheap partisan politics, he is showing one of the oldest truth that the absolute power corrupts absolutely and we should always fight for keeping our humanity intact, not fight for any ideology even if it sounds tempting.

@@bamahama707 It does, The radical Left will bring us there. "People should not fear their government, government should fear its people." - V- The left wants to give all power over to the government. Thats how you end up like they did in the movie.
The 2nd clip, the Charlie Chaplin speech, is spectacular. I love how he starts out calm and soothing then as the speech goes on his voice becomes full of emotion and intensity. So powerful... even now nearly 80 years later.
After watching Charlie Chaplin's speech for the first time, I thought about his words then carried on with my life. 70 years later and still his words haven't sunk into anyone's reality. 1 vs over 7 billion different people and their own why of thinking, Greed is man's greatest obstacle and obsession.
8:23 the most debated moment in Chaplin's speech... Many argue wether it was great acting, or Chaplin himself realizing that he just described the real world.. Rings true, even today
@@IvyThePoisonous Different cultures is the symbol of diversity in humanity, What we need is acceptance, literacy and kindness. Evil will always arise, it is the very consequence of the absence of the values mentioned above. Only thing that can save us is the realization, and this is the realization of that we are nothing but the part of a long tale. Its up to us how this part is gonna be.......
@@Frank00 Except he wasn't but rather a sympathizer. Also, it's worth questioning, that whether or not he was a communist, he brought joy and happiness to millions of people. Was he actually a horrible person?
The underlayed and overloud music in "The Great Dictator"-speech destroys it all. Chaplin knew what he did when he just lets us hear his voice and only after it brings in Wagner again.
I miss Al Pacino's speech from a movie 'Scent Of A Woman.' He defends integrity of his protege who's just going to expelled from university. Unforgettable and - in my opinion - exceeds all 5 speeches in this video.
I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's not my business. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible. Jew - Gentile - Black Man, White. We all want to help one another, human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness. Not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. And this world has room for everyone, and the good Earth is rich can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has posioned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives us abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynincal. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much, and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity. More that cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities life will be violent, and all will be lost. The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men - cries out for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. ... Soldiers! don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts! You don't hate! Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural! Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty! In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: "the Kingdom of God is within man" - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power - the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfil that promise. They never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people! Now let us fight to fulfil that promise! Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness. Soldiers! in the name of democracy, let us all unite
Dude forget about the four of them. Mr. Chaplin's speech and emotions kept me as a bug and threw me to the wall. Astonishing, stunning, breathtaking performance. And those words... My gosh... It stopped my heart till the speech is over. I salute you sincerely, sir. You've done your job, you've showed why the people should make a movie.
A truly life changing speech if you ask the speaker they will say it’s not even their proudest moment, no one gives a speech that changes the world that doesn’t absolutely pain them to say, no one takes joy in pain, those speakers have reached the end of their sanity or energy to fight so they do the last most dramatic thing they can to inspire someone to at least gain the strength they don’t have
“We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in it”- the internet. “Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want”- smartphones, tablets, laptops etc... “Our knowledge has made us cynical”- walking on eggshells with everyone being easily offended at everything. “We think too much and feel too little”- social media. Charlie Chaplin’s speech may have been one that is timeless. As proven by how accurate it has described the current world we live in.
Because humans never learned. At the same time, he is part the reason "we have shut ourselves in it" Movies. It all started when we began to stare at a moving picture.
One of the greatest on-screen monologues of all time. It was meant to make Nicholson's character more of a villain, but it actually made him come across as more of a no-nonsense leader and more likeable to those who use logic & reason over emotion. “.. a man who rises and sleeps under the very blanket of freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said Thank You and went on your way”. Amen. (as the snowflakes go into complete meltdown and run for their 'safe spaces')
@@KayFabe87 Fool! Jessup's actions turn USA into the same communist dictator nightmare that he was supposed to protect America from! How idiotic you incel alt-right idiots can be...
Merya Tathagres I agree. We should question the way “freedom” is provided. To blindly live under a blanket is for the weak to afraid to ask questions. Let’s just go live in China or North Korea where there are laws against questioning the authority.
@@meryatathagres1998 I find it very telling that at the same time you are rallying against communistic dictatorships you feel it totally appropriate to resort to labelling people with dehumanizing slurs and epithets.
Wow Charlie Chaplin, that was amazing and courageous when seen in context to the period it was done in. That was powerful, he even brilliantly invoked the BIBLE
The Chaplin speech was the best one since it applies to the world currently. Always odd when something so old can apply to current times. Some words never lose meaning regardless of how much time passes
Jessop; You want gin or vodka? Caffee; I want a martini. Jessop; Do you want gin or vodka? Caffee; I think I'm entitled to a martini. Jessop; I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to. Do you want gin or vodka? Caffee; I WANT VERMOUTH! Jessop; YOU CAN"T HANDLE VERMOUTH!
Charlie Chaplin's speech was the most prophetic and meaningful....he saw exactly what General Patton saw...."the military industrial machine" and advanced technology....left unchecked in the hands of greed driven power crazed leaders....was a real danger to society...and society has to stay vigilant to keep this ever present threat in check!!!
geez... Patton?? You obviously have access to the internet. Couldn’t do a search first. As already pointed out, it was Eisenhower who spoke about the Military Industrial Complex in his farewell address. Patton had been dead for 15 years when the speech was made.
That Charlie Chaplin is not only one of the greatest movie speeches ever, but one of the greatest speeches ever in general. Not only the speech itself but the passion in which he delivered it makes you feel like it wasn't just for the movie.
Absolutely. It really highlights what integrity and courage really are. Extremely important concepts those which are THE necessary, and only, antidotes for most of our modern chronic social ills.
I always have to remind myself that the speech Jack Nicholson did in "A few good men" is prior to 9/11. Same as "Enemy of the state", with Will Smith. At that time (prior to 2001) a world like post 9/11 seemed impossible. Boy was I wrong...
Ever watch 'The Siege' with Denzel, Annette Benning, and Bruce Willis as the oppressive US General, declaring martial law in NYC? Not a movie anyone seems to want to watch again after 9/11, Abu Ghraib and (post-Col. Jessup) Guantanamo Bay..
Nicholson played a man who inflated his rank and title through an extreme sense of self-importance, playing God with the lives of others (but actually sanctioning through an order the murder of a fellow soldier), and turning out to be nothing more than a sanctimonious prick!
@rockn roll He didn't order a murder. They carried out a code red. A trimming and he died during the process. There are people that guard walls and those like you that question the manner in which it is done. Those like you that criticize but aren't qualified to do the job, can't do the job and won't do the job. And yes.... I served before you even inquire
Missing Matthew McConaughey’s closing argument in A Time To Kill. The reactions of everyone listening to him when he says the final line make that moment one of the biggest in movie history for me.
You are 100000000% correct!!!!! Love that movie, but that monologue was INTENSE, and beautiful....and if u watch again, the camera never pans away, so you know he did the entire thing in a single take, rather than talking, changing angles, and piecing a speech together. Good call bro!!!
The Great Dictator (Charlie Chaplin) speech so inspiring he was such a great man! If this movie was made today some people might find it offensive because he didn't include non-binary and other 90 something genders.
Charlie Chaplin's speech is by far the best...its beyond poetic and reaches right into the soul... It speaks direct, sure and true, it has such a loving intonation that motivates, it is full of hope for a better tommorow for everyone of us.
I was stationed overseas in the military 20, years ago as i sat up to watch a (AFN movie) armed force network,i saw this speach, and moved me so much i truly questioned my own existence, i cryed because his words were real, as they stand today, a true believer, knows, a non believer guesses 💯
I think it's still the same issue, people think so much these days they loose touch of reality, they loose touch of themselves, they miss whole days, months and years in thought. We need to go back to feeling, feel tells us what's going on right now, feel tells us what needs fixing, what needs priority, what needs attention. Thinking simply confuses this. So many issues left untouched because people think right past them.
I did 'A Few Good Men' in high school (I played Jessup) and the play is a little different. There's no "you can't handle the truth" in the script so we had to write it in. I loved this part. Also, unpopular opinion, but I agree with Jessup.
@ Don Derondon agreed ! It still gives me chills to hear it! Another honourable mention [although it's subtitled ! ] Should go to Gerard Depardieu's final monologue in Cyrano De Bergerac.
Bill Pullman's speech in Inipendence Day", almost made the people including me to stand up and cheer for that soulful, intense patriotic speech in the cinema when i watch it in 94. His voice came out fullof angst.
Luke 17:21 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. 🕊🌿

100% very powerful
V for Vendetta is every bit as good... that mirror he speaks of applies right now.
@@bamahama707 It does, The radical Left will bring us there. "People should not fear their government, government should fear its people." - V- The left wants to give all power over to the government. Thats how you end up like they did in the movie.
Charlie Chaplin’s speech was by far the most impactful to me. I teared up at the message it delivered.
more relevant than ever
Comic
The 2nd clip, the Charlie Chaplin speech, is spectacular. I love how he starts out calm and soothing then as the speech goes on his voice becomes full of emotion and intensity. So powerful... even now nearly 80 years later.
He was copying Hitler.
And said the exact opposite in this speech. Did you understood the movie? This is the exact nub of the matter.
@@shalokshalom, I think He tried to say that Chaplin used a public speaking technique similar to the real dictator's one.
Charlie Chaplin is hands down, the best speech ever made!. Sends shivers down my spine every single time
That’s so sad
I agree
After watching Charlie Chaplin's speech for the first time, I thought about his words then carried on with my life. 70 years later and still his words haven't sunk into anyone's reality. 1 vs over 7 billion different people and their own why of thinking, Greed is man's greatest obstacle and obsession.
What can we do about it?
@@anklegod3700 Turn off your TV, and start living your best life.
The man who never talked before made us speechless. Hands down !
"You don't have to answer that question!"
"Mkay."
Movie over.
8:23 the most debated moment in Chaplin's speech...
Many argue wether it was great acting, or Chaplin himself realizing that he just described the real world..
Rings true, even today
We’ll change
Long as there are different cultures different beliefs and different ways. We humans will never accept each other
@@IvyThePoisonous Different cultures is the symbol of diversity in humanity, What we need is acceptance, literacy and kindness. Evil will always arise, it is the very consequence of the absence of the values mentioned above. Only thing that can save us is the realization, and this is the realization of that we are nothing but the part of a long tale. Its up to us how this part is gonna be.......
Chaplin, a man who dont speak almost all of his movies but damn what a great speech for a movie
Gj Lipana the man was a known communist and a horrible person
@@Frank00 Except he wasn't but rather a sympathizer. Also, it's worth questioning, that whether or not he was a communist, he brought joy and happiness to millions of people. Was he actually a horrible person?
The speech by Chaplin in “The Great Dictator” was far ahead of its time.....but was truly needed in the time of segregation and hate.
The good old days.
If segregation is what you want, we are on a fast track back to it at present.
It was so much more than that then as it is now !
Charlie Chaplin at 5:00 is great..speaking against tyranny , hate, greed, intolerance
He's promoting communism that murdered 100 million people + and you have no clue what the speech is about.
@user name taken, well put, thanks.
@user name taken Agreed.
@@strategicthinker8899 No he isn't. He was speaking as a pre-1963 liberal. Very idealist they were. The Cold War killed them.
@user name taken How can you try without thinking it is possible? Why would you?
A speech so powerful from the past it can still be heard today.
No Al Pacino in "Scent of a Woman"? Sheeeeesh!
Shocking tbh. I watch it almost everyday.
Also 'A time to kill' ending & 'Jerry Macguire' ending.
Are you reading this brain in me head?
I was thinking about the same thing, how come wolf of Wall Street get on the list, why not the scent of a woman
Nope
Only thievery and manipulation on this list. Maybe next time..
The underlayed and overloud music in "The Great Dictator"-speech destroys it all. Chaplin knew what he did when he just lets us hear his voice and only after it brings in Wagner again.
Charlie Chaplin’s speech is so true again even now as Russia-Ukraine fight goes on. May love and peace overcome hate and war.
I miss Al Pacino's speech from a movie 'Scent Of A Woman.' He defends integrity of his protege who's just going to expelled from university. Unforgettable and - in my opinion - exceeds all 5 speeches in this video.
Scent of a woman ...
Al Pacino missing here!!
Buddy u missed the biggest one...
Just check AL Pacino’s Speech from Scent of a Woman
The movie Heat has a scene that I like as well...it goes "you know there are two side of that coin?"
Yes that was a great scene
That monologue is overrated and out of line - and I'm a Pacino fan (and an actor and acting teacher).
@@yankee2666 very much agree.
This boy's soul is INTACT.
I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor.
That's not my business.
I don't want to rule or conquer anyone.
I should like to help everyone if possible.
Jew - Gentile - Black Man, White.
We all want to help one another, human beings are like that.
We want to live by each other's happiness.
Not by each other's misery.
We don't want to hate and despise one another.
And this world has room for everyone, and the good Earth is rich can provide for everyone.
The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way.
Greed has posioned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in.
Machinery that gives us abundance has left us in want.
Our knowledge has made us cynincal.
Our cleverness, hard and unkind.
We think too much, and feel too little.
More than machinery, we need humanity.
More that cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness.
Without these qualities life will be violent, and all will be lost.
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together.
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men - cries out for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all.
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair.
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people.
And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. ...
Soldiers!
don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel!
Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
You are not machines!
You are not cattle!
You are men!
You have the love of humanity in your hearts!
You don't hate!
Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!
Soldiers!
Don't fight for slavery!
Fight for liberty!
In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: "the Kingdom of God is within man" - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men!
In you!
You, the people have the power - the power to create machines.
The power to create happiness!
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite.
Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security.
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power.
But they lie!
They do not fulfil that promise.
They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people!
Now let us fight to fulfil that promise!
Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.
Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
Soldiers!
in the name of democracy, let us all unite
There's no nobility in poverty
There is no virtue in greed.

MAN I get chills watching this scene! Some amazing acting and actors!
The Charlie Chaplin one pisses all over any other example you could possible put here--by about a million miles.
I agree 100%
intelligence is diminishing, and it is set up that way on purpose. we the people, more and more, are paying attention.
Dude forget about the four of them. Mr. Chaplin's speech and emotions kept me as a bug and threw me to the wall. Astonishing, stunning, breathtaking performance. And those words... My gosh... It stopped my heart till the speech is over. I salute you sincerely, sir. You've done your job, you've showed why the people should make a movie.
You a weakling ?
Ah yes, how could I forget that Han Zimmer did the soundtrack for The Good Dictator.
Amazing speech by Charlie Chaplin, wow
Haven’t seen most of these movies. Thanks I’ll be binge watching this weekend
If u haven't seen a few good men. U 3yrs old?
A truly life changing speech if you ask the speaker they will say it’s not even their proudest moment, no one gives a speech that changes the world that doesn’t absolutely pain them to say, no one takes joy in pain, those speakers have reached the end of their sanity or energy to fight so they do the last most dramatic thing they can to inspire someone to at least gain the strength they don’t have
"I'm gonna puke in your dead skull, you messed with the wrong Marine" Now that's not how I remember the line happening
“We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in it”- the internet.
“Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want”- smartphones, tablets, laptops etc...
“Our knowledge has made us cynical”- walking on eggshells with everyone being easily offended at everything.
“We think too much and feel too little”- social media.
Charlie Chaplin’s speech may have been one that is timeless. As proven by how accurate it has described the current world we live in.
Because humans never learned. At the same time, he is part the reason "we have shut ourselves in it" Movies. It all started when we began to stare at a moving picture.
Kathy - good point.
Love jacks speech ! I cracked up when he said "who's gonna do it u ! U LT Weinberg. Also when he says u want me on that wall u need me on that wall!
Even if he ordered your son to be hazed and as a result killed?
One of the greatest on-screen monologues of all time. It was meant to make Nicholson's character more of a villain, but it actually made him come across as more of a no-nonsense leader and more likeable to those who use logic & reason over emotion.
“.. a man who rises and sleeps under the very blanket of freedom that I provide, and then questions the
manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said Thank You and went on your way”. Amen.
(as the snowflakes go into complete meltdown and run for their 'safe spaces')
@@KayFabe87 Fool! Jessup's actions turn USA into the same communist dictator nightmare that he was supposed to protect America from! How idiotic you incel alt-right idiots can be...
Merya Tathagres I agree. We should question the way “freedom” is provided. To blindly live under a blanket is for the weak to afraid to ask questions. Let’s just go live in China or North Korea where there are laws against questioning the authority.
@@meryatathagres1998 I find it very telling that at the same time you are rallying against communistic dictatorships you feel it totally appropriate to resort to labelling people with dehumanizing slurs and epithets.
Awesome video clip. Thx. Especially the speech of Chaplin is outstanding and of current relevance. Also, the underlying Inception score fits very well
Wow Charlie Chaplin, that was amazing and courageous when seen in context to the period it was done in. That was powerful, he even brilliantly invoked the BIBLE
"Greed is good". Freaking timeless...👍👍👍
I love the Charlie Chaplin speech, great speech and boy does it still right true to this very day.
The Chaplin speech was the best one since it applies to the world currently. Always odd when something so old can apply to current times. Some words never lose meaning regardless of how much time passes
Human capable of magic I guess
I think the closing argument from "A Time to Kill" is one of the best EVER.
Way better than the last 3 in this video.
I was waiting to see it in this video. What a disappointment
February 19, 2020-
Dang, Charlie Chaplin really did an outstanding job... His speech is way ahead of the future now!
I love that line you can't handle the truth
Charlie Chaplin has by far the best speech 100%
After the Charlie Chaplin speech I logged off, I don't need spoilers
Jeroxvids Good thing. It should’ve ended there.

Goosebumps from the Charlie Chaplin speech because it's true.
Powerful..💪
My favourite part of the V For Vendetta speech is seeing Stephen Fry watching it, and understanding every single element of it.
Jack Nicholson YEEEEEAAAAAAHHH!! I could watch that speech 100 times and still want to watch it again!! JACK IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
Jessop; You want gin or vodka?
Caffee; I want a martini.
Jessop; Do you want gin or vodka?
Caffee; I think I'm entitled to a martini.
Jessop; I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to. Do you want gin or vodka?
Caffee; I WANT VERMOUTH!
Jessop; YOU CAN"T HANDLE VERMOUTH!

C: "I want the juice!"
J: "You can't handle the juice!"
Charlie Chaplin's speech was the most prophetic and meaningful....he saw exactly what General Patton saw...."the military industrial machine" and advanced technology....left unchecked in the hands of greed driven power crazed leaders....was a real danger to society...and society has to stay vigilant to keep this ever present threat in check!!!
geez... Patton?? You obviously have access to the internet. Couldn’t do a search first. As already pointed out, it was Eisenhower who spoke about the Military Industrial Complex in his farewell address. Patton had been dead for 15 years when the speech was made.
That Charlie Chaplin is not only one of the greatest movie speeches ever, but one of the greatest speeches ever in general. Not only the speech itself but the passion in which he delivered it makes you feel like it wasn't just for the movie.
Jeff Daniels speech in the Newsroom is amazing as well....
"Only the unloved hate" Truest words ever spoken.
Alec Baldwin's monologue in Glengarry Glen Ross is seriously underrated!
Coffee... Only for closers.
Where's Rocky's "that's how winning is done" speech from Rocky Balboa? That's number one in my book.
It's a good 1
Alpacino speech on “Scent of a Woman”
Yeah, that should really be included. Epic speech.
I came to the comment section after realizing that Scent of a Woman speech wasn't included. What a shame :(
"... And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, F- YOU TOO!" :)
Absolutely. It really highlights what integrity and courage really are. Extremely important concepts those which are THE necessary, and only, antidotes for most of our modern chronic social ills.
I always have to remind myself that the speech Jack Nicholson did in "A few good men" is prior to 9/11. Same as "Enemy of the state", with Will Smith. At that time (prior to 2001) a world like post 9/11 seemed impossible. Boy was I wrong...
Yes. You have to wonder, was Nicholson's character REALLY that wrong??
Ever watch 'The Siege' with Denzel, Annette Benning, and Bruce Willis as the oppressive US General, declaring martial law in NYC? Not a movie anyone seems to want to watch again after 9/11, Abu Ghraib and (post-Col. Jessup) Guantanamo Bay..
Jack Nicholson's speech in A Few Good Men was the truth and it holds true today.
Agree
Nicholson played a man who inflated his rank and title through an extreme sense of self-importance, playing God with the lives of others (but actually sanctioning through an order the murder of a fellow soldier), and turning out to be nothing more than a sanctimonious prick!
To bad we live in a PC world.
@@elysiumfire4230 your weak!
@rockn roll
He didn't order a murder.
They carried out a code red.
A trimming and he died during the process.
There are people that guard walls and those like you that question the manner in which it is done. Those like you that criticize but aren't qualified to do the job, can't do the job and won't do the job.
And yes.... I served before you even inquire
Where is Rocky Balboa's "Keep Moving Forward" speech.
Nice!
Exactly! Now I gotta go watch it
Agreed. IMO, Wolf of Wall Street doesn't belong. Should have the Rocky monologue instead.
Missing Matthew McConaughey’s closing argument in A Time To Kill. The reactions of everyone listening to him when he says the final line make that moment one of the biggest in movie history for me.
You are 100000000% correct!!!!! Love that movie, but that monologue was INTENSE, and beautiful....and if u watch again, the camera never pans away, so you know he did the entire thing in a single take, rather than talking, changing angles, and piecing a speech together. Good call bro!!!
Love that movie. In the book that speech is given by a jury member in the back room
The Great Dictator (Charlie Chaplin) speech so inspiring he was such a great man! If this movie was made today some people might find it offensive because he didn't include non-binary and other 90 something genders.
thanks Charlie..this speech is so actual if I think what is happing around the world.
The Dictator is one classic movie I haven't seen with Charlie Chaplin. It was a great speech and timeless.
Charlie Chaplin's speech is by far the best...its beyond poetic and reaches right into the soul... It speaks direct, sure and true, it has such a loving intonation that motivates, it is full of hope for a better tommorow for everyone of us.
I gotta say, the Great Dictator speech with Inception score overlay is OUTSTANDING.
It ruined it.
It's so tragic that Charlie Chaplin's speech is still relatable.
This piece by Nicholson just blows my mind everytime I watch it. Such an amazing actor.
I was stationed overseas in the military 20, years ago as i sat up to watch a (AFN movie) armed force network,i saw this speach, and moved me so much i truly questioned my own existence, i cryed because his words were real, as they stand today, a true believer, knows, a non believer guesses 💯
"We think too much and feel too little"
Yeah, we have the opposite problem these days...
Almost a year late....I think its more on empathy. I think what it means is that we try to put peoples lives into numbers, into groups.
I think it's still the same issue, people think so much these days they loose touch of reality, they loose touch of themselves, they miss whole days, months and years in thought. We need to go back to feeling, feel tells us what's going on right now, feel tells us what needs fixing, what needs priority, what needs attention. Thinking simply confuses this. So many issues left untouched because people think right past them.
We do think too much and feel to little
Hate and fear are no feelings. They are a lack there of
Notice, how not blinking makes the HUGE difference!!!
Goosebumps on every level from the Charlie Chaplin speech because it's relevant and true in today's corrupt government.
On a much smaller level, I really love Henry Fonda's speech from "The Grapes Of Wrath". Short but really powerful.
I did 'A Few Good Men' in high school (I played Jessup) and the play is a little different. There's no "you can't handle the truth" in the script so we had to write it in. I loved this part.
Also, unpopular opinion, but I agree with Jessup.
Man that scene from Few Good Men is still awesome. Outstanding scene from Tom Cruise
NO, outstanding scene from Jack Nicholson
One of my favorite speeches is from Ned Beatty "The World is a Corporation" speech from the movie Network 1976.
The best one...ever..it encloses everything..simple as that...
Han zimmers 'time' + charlie chaplins speech = 😍
Where is Al Pacino in 'Scent of woman"?
Thought that was a little corny of a speech lol. My bad, but there is another channel on here where it is on there.
I seen all these movies. I almost lost myself till now. Watching this again bring the beast out of me. I want to help other people's.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the day the English language took a much needed summer vacation.
RansomeStoddard -ouch.
when you use a clip of a speech that's been censored, you're obviously Missing the point... :>/
I was thinking the same thing. What's the edited Nicholson speech?
@@wasteland70 "Your goddamn right I did" (edited to Your damn right I did).
Us in the public, realize the intent and would like to use these in places like class, so, a PG version is appreciated.
An honorable mention should be given to the scene in Jaws when Quint (Robert Shaw) gives the monologue on the USS Indianapolis sinking / shark attack.
I will never forget the first time I saw that. Was one of the most heart-stopping scenes ever. Better than the entire rest of the movie by far.
@@michaelbernard2109 well the heart stopping part was just after the speech when there is a big thump as Mr. Shark bumps the boat.
Agreed
@ Don Derondon agreed ! It still gives me chills to hear it! Another honourable mention [although it's subtitled ! ] Should go to Gerard Depardieu's final monologue in Cyrano De Bergerac.
Bill Pullman's speech in Inipendence Day", almost made the people including me to stand up and cheer for that soulful, intense patriotic speech in the cinema when i watch it in 94. His voice came out fullof angst.
"Mad Prophet of the airwaves" Howard Beale's rant from "Network" (1976) is pretty darn good .
It's 2019 and that second monolog got me feeling inspired
I’m in my 40s and just saw part of ‘The Good Dictator’ for the first time in my life.
George C. Scott's speech in "Patton?"
Luke 17:21
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
