Road to the sea

At the age of twelve, he left to see the sea. He was caught and brought back.
At twenty, he went again. But he met the girl he stayed with.
At thirty, he wondered, "Did I choose the right road?"
At fifty he went again, but his heart failed him.
There were many roads to the sea.
But he never made it to the end of any of them.
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

Charlie Chaplin's satirical comedy, in which a simple Jewish barber turns out to be the doppelganger of dictator Hinkel (the political implication is quite transparent), is full of hilarious jokes and incredible coincidences, but it ends with one of the most moving and serious humanist messages in the history of cinema. The barber who has replaced the dictator with a fiery speech urges all soldiers to lay down their arms and stop being slaves to a cruel system.
