Modern Times Review

I personally like the film Modern Times and how it was made. The film was created in 1936, that means that Charlie Chaplin had the technology to make a movie with sound but he didn't. I like this about about the film because it has a greater impact. For instance in the factory, the boss ("Big Brother") is the only one that speaks, making it seem as if he is above all of the workers. I also liked the fact that it was a silent film because it was a "tradition" with Chaplin's character The Little Tramp. Charlie believed if he made the movie with sound then it would be the same as any other film made at the time, he wanted it to be original. Modern Times was also interesting because of the ideas Chaplin introduced, he predicted the future. He thought that everyone would be unhappy and working in a factory being watched ever so closely by the boss. This film is now one of my favorite movies because it shows the struggle of the factory living that lifestyle.
