Join Us for a Special Evening at Beechwood Cemetery as we watch The Criterion Collection's restored version of Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator.
Experience a unique cultural event in the beautiful green space of Beechwood Cemetery, Canada's only national cemetery.
Event Highlights:
Film Screening: The movie will start at 7:30PM. Arrive early to secure a good spot!
- In his controversial masterpiece THE GREAT DICTATOR, Charlie Chaplin offers both a cutting caricature of Adolf Hitler and a sly tweaking of his own comic persona. Chaplin, in his first pure talkie, brings his sublime physicality to two roles: the cruel yet clownish “Tomainian” dictator and the kindly Jewish barber who is mistaken for him. Featuring Jack Oakie and Paulette Goddard in stellar supporting turns, THE GREAT DICTATOR, boldly going after the fascist leader before the U.S.’s official entry into World War II, is an audacious amalgam of politics and slapstick that culminates in Chaplin’s famously impassioned speech. -
