my review of Modern Times



Modern Times is a great movie. Before we begun watching the movie in class I thought it was going to be a boring old school, black an white movie with absolutly no sound. There was actually sounds of things movies and of only some people speaking. The point of this was to not end the fame of the character that he had been portraying for almost 2 decades as a non-speaking character. Modern Times had metaphors that went well with the message of the movie. At the end of the movie, Charlie Chaplin sent a message to all the people that were having a miserable time. He advised them to simply smile and keep moving forward. This is an old movie that can be seen now and still be enjoyable. Also, people could still relate to the feelings of the workers and relate to the metaphor that was shown at the beginning of the movie.
