Story:
The Little Tramp is a laborer in a factory’s assembly line. He is about to turn into a nervous wreck because of the job’s monotony.
Being used as a guinea pig for a new invention called the ‘automatic feeding machine’ is just making his condition worse, so he ends up in an asylum.
A slapstick skewering of industrialized America, Modern Times is as politically incisive as it is laugh-out-loud hilarious.
