Modern Times/摩登时代


This movie was Charlie Chaplin's most well-known masterpiece, demonstrating how a single man (as an individual) made a living (or survived) in the great industrial age. Chaplin's superb performance showed completely the audience all the feelings of a humble guy, his own happiness, anger, sorrow and laugh. In particular, the movie's beginning part about the working scene in a large factory, was so often referred by many people later on its kinds of philosophical connotations, such as dissimilation from industrialization to human beings.

卓别林的代表作,探讨的其实是在大工业时代,作为个体的人(小人物)是如何生活(生存)的。卓别林的精湛表演带着观众完全进入到一个小人物的喜怒哀乐中。尤其是影片开始的大工厂里做工的片段,屡屡被很多后来人在各种哲学意义上进行讨论和阐述,例如工业化对人的异化。
