Modern Times LIVE with Babylon Orchestra Berlin

You'll laugh, you'll cry and you'll never forget the movie.

Charlie Chaplin is looking for his little bit of luck again.

This time it's not about gold in Alaska, he's trying to find a “normal” life with his hands work.

But the machines, the circumstances, many of our fellow human beings lack any connection to what Chaplin wants to tell us.

But he can't even speak, he is mute! He dances, he gestures and at the end he runs away.

It is an escape. But luckily he finds the woman of his dreams first.

And so they go far away, as a couple, to the land of dreams on Highway 61. Revisited.

TIGHT

You will laugh, you will cry and you will never forget the movie.

Modern Times, USA 1936, directed by Charlie Chaplin with Charles Chaplin, Paulette Goddard, Al Ernest Garcia, 89 min, original version with English subtitles

Charlie Chaplin is again in search of his little bit of happiness.

This time it's not for gold in Alaska, he tries to find a “normal” life with his hands work.

But the machines, the circumstances, many of the fellow human beings, lack the reference to what Chaplin wants to tell us.

Yet he cannot speak at all, he is mute! He dances, he gesticulates, and in the end he runs away.

It is an escape. But fortunately he finds the woman of his dreams first.

And so they go off into the distance, two by two, into the land of dreams on Highway 61. Revisited.

Subjected to the infernal production rate of the factory, a model worker suddenly has a nervous breakdown and goes mad.

From Hospital, to Prison, to Unemployment, the Little Tramp Gets Caught Up in the Sprockets and Cogs of Modern Industrialization.

That is, until he comes across a beautiful orphaned gamine, whom he helps escape from the police.

How to break free from the constraints of modern life? Chaplin provides a critical look at productivity in the early 20th century & well beyond!

Charlie is a factory worker in this hectic age - a minor cog in the grinding wheels of industry. His job - mechanically tightening bolts on a moving belt. The monotony of the work drives him Beserk. Taken to hospital he soon recovers and is discharged, cautioned to avoid excitement. Caught in a street riot, he is mistaken for the leader and thrown into a patrol wagon.

Nonsense Song from Modern Times (Titine)

Music by Leo Daniderff, Lyrics by Charles Chaplin, Sung by Charles Chaplin

In 1936 The Little Fellow, Chaplin's Little Tramp, had been one of the most famous figures in the world for over 20 years. Instantly recognisable, internationally loved.

When Chaplin sang this song in Modern Times it was the very first time that the world heard his voice, after two decades of silent pantomime.
