My Review on Modern Times

I enjoyed the film Modern times. Generally, I like the comedy in it, the romance, and the struggles, but most of all his character. He taught us that during the industrial revolution people were very poor, factories controlled the workers by having them work long hours, and when they would not work they will be on strike. Charlie Chaplin as the little tramp symbolized hope and happiness during rough times. Also, an interesting scene in the movie is when Chaplin gets swallowed into the machine. That shows that too much work can swallow the employee as a whole! And later on in the film we see that he makes the repetitive movement as he would when he works, and that shows employees went crazy! The gamit in the film demonstrates that during tough times people have the need to steal to feed their families and they will do whatever it takes to stay out of prison. Overall this film shows the rough times and the happy times.
