& Nazis Hit „Dictator“
The Nazis have caused annoyances during the exhibition
of „The Great Dictator“ (U. A.) at the Cine Palacio
Chino here, scene of Hitlerite outrages during the showings
of „Pastor Hall,“ but failed to stop the Chaplin films
as they did „Pastor.“ The trouble makers sprayed stench gas
in the theatre and drove out some patrons. They
reinforced police guard at the cinema, placed especially for
the screenings of „Dictator,“ failed to capture them.
Anonymous Nazis have placarded walls in Mexico City
with denouncements of „Dictator,“ asserting that
it is one of a series of insults to Germany, that it is Jewish
propaganda, that Mr. Chaplin and Miss Goddard
are Jews, that the film was a box office and artistic failure
in the United States.
„Dictator“ is playing to a new high admittance for a film
here, 65 cents, and business is fairly good.

Herald, Jan. 25, 1941
„Finally passed Charlie Chaplin‘s Dictator“
Editorial content. „The Argentine government finally passed
Charlie Chaplin‘s Dictator after the film originally had
been banned because of protests by Germany. Confessions
of a Nazi Spy, though, remains on the shelf. . . .
Chaplin and Goddard are together again, living at the beach
home of her agent and planning a Honolulu trip
when she finishes her new picture.“
