Modern Times was Charlie Chaplin's last full-length silent film. The author situates "Modern Times" within the context of Chaplin's life work, exploring its history and influences. She explores how the film's themes of oppression, industrialization and dehumanization are embodied in the little tramp's struggle to survive in the modern world.
