German Audience Laugh at the Great Dictator

(Original Caption) 8/14/1946-Berlin, Germany- A row of German women laugh heartily as they see Charlie Chaplin's imitation of Hitler making a speech in the movie "The Great Dictator." The film, shown experimentally to some 400 Berliners under the auspices of the American Military Government's Information Control Division, August 10, met with a mixed reaction on the part of the audience. The picture was sprung by surprise on the Germans, who thought they were going to be shown "Kitty Foyle."
