In order to properly clarify this picture‚ we have to start from the beginning‚ shed light on the history of the Jewish people‚ and pay particular attention to the dark times during the Holocaust‚ and particularly refer to the Jewish understanding of the holiday. Jewish history tells us about how the Jewish people lived from the time when they appeared up to the present day. The nation is like a big family‚ and a large family can be compared

When I look at this picture I don’t just see thousands of Jewish men and women being sent to the crematorium to be burned to death. I see the cloudy gloomy weather. It is such a depressing scene‚ imagine how they felt being marched to their death. You can help but wonder if some of the Nazis guarding them felt any sort of guilt as they were having all of these prisoners murdered right before their eyes or had their conscience grown silent from doing it so much.

Austin Barnard November 18‚ 2010 Is the Great Dictator a holocaust film? The Great Dictator‚ by Charlie Chaplin‚ can be argued both ways as to weather or not it is a film relevant to the holocaust.
