film is not long, only one hour and ten minutes, the film has left many classic and funny scenes, such as two people fighting The scene where the gun is always pointed at the other person, the dance with the dog, the dance with the fork and the bread, and the thrilling scene in the cabin at the end, etc., watching, watching, Can not help but make people laugh.
But the film is not like an ordinary comedy film. While it brings endless joy to the audience, it also makes the audience laugh, and generate a kind of concern and sympathy for the fate of the little people at the bottom. For example, in times of hunger, Jim, due to his delirious hallucinations, treats Chaplin as a chicken and wants to kill him to fill his hunger. When I saw this scene, I couldn't help feeling an inexplicable sadness. Perhaps the hallucination was not due to confusion at all, but fundamentally reflected a survival instinct in the subconscious of human nature. I can't help but think of the tragic scenes of cannibalism that happened in China during the three years of poverty in the 1960s. We can't blame anyone. When people's survival is a problem, what is the use of morality? Perhaps this is due to human survival instinct. Just like this year's Wenchuan earthquake, Mr. Fan Meizhong made a move that violated the so-called "morality" recognized by the society at such an extraordinary moment, which immediately caused an uproar, and there was a wave of scolding in the country, and many people defended him. I can only use one sentence for this. Maybe this is also the reason why he has the survival instinct as a person. At that kind of extraordinary moment, we have no right to ask him to do earth-shattering heroic deeds.
