In honor of Labor Day, I am writing about Charlie Chaplin's
Modern Times, one of the most famous movies about labor. I have a new blu ray from Criterion, but I haven't been able to get the television long enough to watch it. When I do, I'll write more about the movie.
Some scenes seem familiar to us today.
I eat at my desk every day.
I have never done this at work, but I understand how he feels.
I wish I could be this graceful.
The scene with the red flag was funny, but many people found it controversial. I remember a school friend's mother who thought Chaplin was a communist.
