Modern Times
dir. Charlie Chaplin · 1936
The struggle to find personal meaning and connection in a rapidly changing and impersonal world can lead to feelings of alienation and absurdity.
"Modern Times" is a timeless exploration of the struggle against modernity, where Charlie Chaplin's iconic Tramp navigates a world of industrial chaos with whimsical charm and unyielding spirit. This film is a poignant reminder of resilience and the enduring quest for love amidst societal absurdities.
A bumbling tramp desires to build a home with a young woman, yet is thwarted time and time again by his lack of experience and habit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time..
