Since there's never a good time to drop it I'm just gonna drop it here that Charlie Chaplin self-financed the movie The Great Dictator where he lampooned Hitler cause up till that point Hollywood had been unwilling to finance any any movie that would be banned by the Nazis because Germany was too lucrative a market for capitalism to take a stance on.
Based Charlie Chaplin.
