Famous Movies That Have Been Banned All Over the World

The Great Dictator

Charlie Chaplin wrote, directed, and starred in The Great Dictator to provide satyrical education about the dangers of fascism. Naturally, the movie was banned in Germany, and it was banned in many Latin American countries that were occupied by Nazi sympathizers after the war had ended.
