About Modern Times
Modern Times is a 1936 American part-talkie satirical romantic black comedy film written and directed by Charlie Chaplin in which his iconic Little Tramp character, his last performance as the character, struggles to survive in the modern, industrialized world. The movie stars Chaplin, Paulette Goddard,
Henry Bergman, Tiny Sandford and Chester Conklin.
"Modern Times" is a comedy-drama film written, directed, produced, and starred by Charlie Chaplin. The film tells the story of the Tramp, played by Chaplin, who struggles to survive in a rapidly industrializing world during the Great Depression.

The film is divided into several episodes that depict the Tramp's misadventures in various jobs, including a factory worker, a shipyard worker, and a night watchman. In each job, the Tramp is subjected to harsh working conditions, mechanization, and automation, which lead to accidents and mishaps.
About Modern Times
The Tramp also meets a homeless girl, played by Paulette Goddard, and they form a bond that helps them endure their difficult circumstances. Together, they face a series of challenges, including hunger, poverty, and homelessness.

Throughout the film, Chaplin uses humor and satire to comment on the dehumanizing effects of industrialization, modernization, and capitalism. The film's iconic scenes include the Tramp getting caught in the gears of a giant
machine, performing a hilarious song and dance routine, and accidentally becoming a communist leader.

In the end, the Tramp and the homeless girl find hope and happiness in their shared love and companionship, despite their difficult circumstances. "Modern Times" remains a classic film that continues to resonate with audiences
today as a commentary on the modern world's challenges and the enduring human spirit.
Movie Awards

Modern Times has won many awards and honors. It was one of the first 25 films selected by the Library of Congress
for preservation in the United States National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically
significant". In 2003, it was screened "out of competition" at the Cannes Film Festival.
My Opinion About This Movie

on the common man. The film showcases Chaplin's iconic tramp character and his encounters with technology, unemployment, and societal
changes, delivering a timeless critique of modernity with humor and heart.
