Family Flicks Film Series: Modern Times

  • This is a past program

Recommended for ages 6+*

This comic masterpiece marks Charlie Chaplin’s swan song as the Little Tramp, an iconic character, as well as his first use of a recorded soundtrack. Modern Times takes aim at the dark side of technology and mass production, all with Chaplin's signature wit and style. (1936, dir. Charlie Chaplin, 35mm, 87 min.)

 

*All ages are welcome. Feel free to take a break with infants and toddlers in the theater lobby.
