Legacy
The globe is iconic as a representation of Adolf Hitler's megalomania. In both Charlie Chaplin's satirical film The Great Dictator (1940), and in The Three Stooges I'll Never Heil Again sequel to their earlier short subject You Nazty Spy! that satirized the Nazi leadership, "Hitler's Globe" is a focus for parody. In Chaplin's feature film, the globe's focus for parody occurred in an iconic scene where the globe is portrayed as a beachball that bursts in front of the dictator Adenoid Hynkel's face. Similarly, in I'll Never Heil Again, the "Axel" partners of Moronikan dictator "Moe Hailstone" play a game of "keep-away" with the globe, eventually with Hailstone's military commander "Field Marshal Herring" smashing the globe over Hailstone's head.
