The movie “Modern Times” represents all the changes our society live after the industrialization process, I mean, all the socio-cultural-economical people’s change suffered during those times.
In the movie we can see the pain of many people who could not find a good job. Also those who had a job had to work in factories in where they suffered harassment and abuse from their bosses, they work more than twelve hour per day and their work was bad salaried.
In Women cases were worst, because they had to carry out the worst job and their paid was really low. Also if the woman was married she had to give her salary to her husbands, who kept it and controlled for her.
"All they were workers with no right!".
Modernity has a bright and dark side. For one side we have new device and medical treatment that help us to have a better life style. On the other hand what we could see in the movie was how people were almost slaves of factories just because they needed to bring some food to their houses and feed their families.
I think modernity brought a lot of socio-cultural changes. Some of them were really good, like new tools that help us to have a better life. On the hand the idea of people as machine gave us a wrong idea of the concept modernity.
I believe the wiser thing to do with all this stories is to learned about all the previous mistakes we committed during those times with the purpose of do not do it again
That is all
