Plot
A factory worker and a young woman struggle to survive in the age of machines.
Sinekatalog’s take
Chaplin's last Tramp film fights the factory age with gags: the assembly-line feeding machine, the roller skates. Mostly silent, tender and political, it shows the comic's craft at its most precise.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
