The first half is really amazing, the imagination is bursting, it is amazing, the second half is exhausted, and I am a little...

The part of roller skating is very interesting~ Chaplin is definitely a master of non-physical performances, the solo part is too classic~ At the end, the two of them smiled and walked hand in hand on the road with no end in sight, showing the helplessness of the society at that time It is a very powerful scene to be confused, but also to show that the little people are unwilling to be ordinary, optimistic and yearning for a better...

[2006-05-02]I watched some of Chaplin's films for a while, and I believed more in my own judgment: the films kept making great strides backwards! ! [2021-02-20] Rewatched Modern times and city lights with my children. Chaplin is such a great and talented...

A comedy masterpiece from the silent era. But let's talk about something other than movies. Chaplin was a famous leftist who had good relations with the Soviet Union and was keen to criticize the reactionary and decadent bourgeoisie in the United States. Yet Zhuo lived a rotten or - rather - rotten life much more rotten than the average American bourgeoisie. The rightists are very honest, and they defend the bourgeoisie with their words and deeds; the leftists play the role of sympathizing with...

It seems to be the last silent film of Master Chaplin. He also wrote, directed and acted as usual, even the soundtrack is his own, this film is also recognized as his masterpiece, and many fragments in it are often quoted, especially in the The scene of screwing nuts on the assembly line is used to express the extreme restraint of the industrial age and capitalism on people. "Joker" also cuts a scene of Chaplin blindfolded roller skating in a department store, and the soundtrack also uses one...

#Addendum# It feels like a patchwork of two films. The first half of the factory work is very complete, and it can be used as a satire when there is a certain friction between machinery and manpower in the early days of the big industrial era. , and the entire rhythm atmosphere and even the characters' personalities have changed. When I was a kid, there were episodes of Chaplin on TV, and every time I watched it, I thought it was so funny, but when I sat there and watched it from beginning to...

[66%] It is also a masterpiece of Chaplin, but it is more than 108,000 miles worse than "City Lights". The problem of the former is infinitely magnified in this film - the comedy sections are not smoothly connected, and the plot is discrete and has no overall awareness. Emotions have been rising, falling, rising, falling again, and the rhythm is very bad. In the end, almost only black screen subtitles are used to narrate, and only paragraphs are left in the video part. As for the main theme,...

Where Buster Keaton designed the film through barricades, ingenious mechanics and ideas, Chaplin through simplicity, clumsiness, kindness and backfire. Keaton's ingenious designs and ideas make the audience's eyes shine, while Chaplin makes them laugh, think and move. Economic and people's livelihood riddled with holes, hopeless optimism, frustrated but full of...

#新看# The social animal life alienated by the machine, the human nature has been eliminated, and it has become a part of the assembly line program-the opening factory scene is quite shocking, and it still has a thought-provoking and sobering significance to this day. He was thrown into prison after being mistaken for the Communist Party, and he made a big splash by mistake. Although this passage is a joke, it shows his political stance (you can contact him later to support the Soviet Union); the...
