When I was very young, I watched Modern Times with my friends and used discs (DVD). At that time, I didn't know the name of Chaplin, but I just thought the film was strange and funny: strange because like Mr. Bean, there is no human voice, there are very few strange babbling sounds, and there are clear black and white ; Funny because of the characters' exaggerated movements and quirky expressions. After a lapse of nearly 10 years, I watched Mr. Chaplin's "City Lights" again. I watched the whole film with the mood of reading and comprehension. I thought the content would be very obscure, but I had a little expectation. But beyond my expectations, unexpected surprises, full of love. All for a blind flower girl who didn't know each other, to bring her happiness, to help her make a living, and to heal her eyes, she was willing to do hard labor, fight boxing, and resist the police by herself, and finally got the 1,000. The US dollar was given to the girl, and she didn't keep a cent for herself, and was caught in jail. At the end of the film, I thought the girl would not recognize the man, and just treated him like a homeless man on the street, willing to give him a flower and a dollar. The ending made me very excited. They reunited and recognized each other. The girl's eyes were full of love, and she didn't dislike the man's identity as a homeless man. I think this is a beam of light in the city, shaking hands It caught me in that moment and it warmed me. Really touched, touched by the pure and unbiased feeling. (There is another part of the film that left a deep impression on me: the attitude of the rich man towards the homeless person in the morning and evening, the difference is just a meal, but the homeless person is living a real life, whether before or after drinking.)
