No matter what era, the master's comedy will always shine with moving brilliance

There is a very wonderful sales, worthy of all salesmen to learn. The automatic feeding robot device is too awesome. You have to admire the props master to achieve such an effect back then. The part of the machine gear is also quite difficult, and there is also a difficult hanging hook performance. A love scene with the thief girl is an upgraded version of "City Lights" and the flower girl. Repetition is Chaplin's funny trick, and it is also one of the effective tricks of comedy. The part like being dragged into the dance floor with food is repeated use. Of course, the most exciting and funny part is the part where the wrench turns the "screw" in front. Suddenly there is a "rugby game", and there is a sense of nonsense everywhere. It is said that the ancestor of nonsensical is "Flying in the Sky", in fact, it should be Master Zhuo. In the end, the two walked hand in hand to the road and far away. In any case, they brought a new hope to people. Chaplin's films always shine with the brilliance of human nature and bring a touch of warmth to people.
