They were obsessed with the idea that Chaplin was Jewish. That's a very good question because at one point there was a book published in Germany by a Jewish consortium that included Chaplin in a roster of famous show business Jews. which was erroneous. He wasn't Jewish. But he never denied the erroneous charge because he felt it would give aid and comfort to anti-Semites.

And besides that, he liked Jews. So he just went along with it. So most people went along with him because he hadn't bothered to deny it.

The thing about Chaplin is that he was going to do what he thought was the right thing to do. He didn't listen to committees. He didn't listen to friends who told him you're making a mistake. He had a very... monotheistic view of his own career. The audience had always followed him wherever he led.

They had followed him into feature motion pictures with The Kid and The Gold Rush when people said that they didn't think he could pull off a feature because the character wasn't strong enough. They had followed him into the 1930s when he insisted on making silent pictures after silent pictures were dead and buried.

But he made two silent pictures, one City Lights, the other was Modern Times, both of which were huge critical and commercial successes. So he believed that the audience would follow him where he led because they always had before. So he didn't really have a lot of qualms about making The Great Dictator based on almost 30 years in show business and 25 years in the movie business.

And by God, the audience followed him.

He was completely unconcerned with that. He thought the only way for... He didn't get into logistics. He believed that Hitler was a moral and religious and psychological and death threat to Western democracy. And nothing else mattered except that he to be defeated, logistics and military personnel and everything else be damned.
