Reginald Gardner and Charlie Chaplin (giving him a 5 finger salute) share an amusing moment during production of "The Great Dictator".

He’s just doing his best for the people, and in return they call for his resignation?! Are they mad, he’s their best option! No, of course he obtained all his properties legally, and how dare you assume he didn’t earn his money by hard work and hard work only? No, his wealth doesn’t have to do anything with the Gardner factories that his great-great-grandfather founded way back in 19th century…oh, and now the people are coming for that too, saying they damage the environment too much, and they’re led by that sad Gao guy, where did he even come from, ugh, and who does he think he is. Poor Reginald just can’t catch a break, why does everyone think he’s the bad guy?! They’re all bonkers!
