In this blog, I will talk about literary terms
of “Modern Times”. First, I write about brief summary of this story.
This story is about a man whose name is
Charlie. He worked at a steel manufacturing factory but his action became
strange gradually and he caused various troubles. So he was sent to a hospital.
After that, he came to be involved in various incidents.
Second, I talk about literary terms of this
story. Setting is in America in 1936 after World Crisis. Conflict is Charlie vs
a capitalistic society. Climax is that Charlie and a girl lost their jobs but
after that, they started to search free life. I think a steel manufacturing
factory is symbol of a capitalistic society in those days. Irony of this story
is that though Charlie was a good person, he often faced bad luck. I suppose
theme is it is important not to be tied to a trend of society.
I think this movie is interesting and funny. I
could enjoy watching. I want to recommend this movie to my friends and family.
