[@xfhghe]

A lot can be said about this film. But among other things, I think this was Chaplin's way of saying good bye to the silent films, an art form that he loved and was master of.

[@I-Hate-Robots-Official]

But yes, I don't understand these kinds of classic films that are mistreated like that! Chaplin himself composed the music for these films, and to take that away from him is to trample on his work, nothing more, nothing less. Even though I love Mozart! I recently saw a so-called original version of the great classic Nosferatu by Murnau, with ambient music on a loop.....anything!! How can we massacre such works! A silent film is inseparable from its music ! However, it seems obvious ;)

[@robertd.carver6240]

"Modern Times," made as a (mostly) silent film well into the "Talkies" era, was both a critical and box office failure. Of course, now it's regarded as a classic and a prime example of Chaplin's genius! He managed to meld superb physical comedy with scathing social commentary, and as with many of his later films, earned him the reputation of actually being a Communist.

[@vicsaul5459]

A classic 👌 CC, why the wrong soundtrack, Paulette Goddard was truly beautiful actress and great dancer 💃, the music is overbearing, should have left it silent

90 years? In my book 2024 minus 1936 is 88. Or are you from the future? 😂

​@@SilverScreen786as others have mentioned, Chaplin may not have been Mozart (though some may dispute that), but his full score was built to fit the scenes.

This film HAS a synchronised soundtrack with extensive Foley sound; -SYNCHRONISED! Why would a restoration NOT exclude Sir Charles' soundtrack? Yes, it is NOT a talkie, but there was originally extensive synchronised sound. I am OLD. I saw this in the theatres.

[@robmckenzie2538]

Exactly. Other restorations with very good quality synchronised sound including some speech exist on the net. Go to them.

[@andrewdiamond5591]

Go to some other posting of this where they haven't SCREWED UP the sound track!!!

[@user-mf3ue5qk2p]

Avec cette musique qui dénature ce film n'est plus regardable, peut-être est-ce la volonté des diffuseurs ?

[@chavruta2000]

The new score sucks and you cant hear what they are saying. And yes kids, the original version wasn't entirely silent.

[@vandanerisgomes9009]

Maravilha

[@martinarielcarello]

Su critica se podía aplicarse aun en día.

[@chavruta2000]

Notice also, in the original assembly line scene how chaplin is rotating the screws and the other two guys are pounding them with hammers, which is an absurd design and a commentary on how brainless the work is.

[@asimkhan-vy5yy]

[@robmckenzie2538]

Why has Chaplin's music been removed and substituted by Mozart's? The latter was a great 18th century composer but his music doesn't suit the era of this film (the mid-1930s). Chaplin's does. What made the publisher think his judgement superior to one of the masters of the cinema? No subscription!

[@mikedonnarumma5337]

music was totally out of sync with the movie, most enjoyable

[@DMC1982]

It's kind of remake of Metropolis
