Modern Times

Modern Times was quite an interesting and funny movie. The humor in this movie was definitely my favorite aspect, however the message that Charlie Chaplin tried to invoke was also very intriguing. One thing that was significant was the fact that Chaplin was trying to show the people that current man in society was miserable. Although some scenes were hilarious, it was clearly evident that many people during that time were desperate for jobs to have some food on the table. I think it was very smart that Chaplin made the movie the way it was because it captures the viewer's attention and at the same time portrays the life of a miserable, working society. It is a form of entertainment, however, the message behind it is also very important. This movie was very touching and I felt that it made me see certain things in a different perspective. I really enjoyed this movie for that reason.
