Review of the film " Modern Times "


                          Yesterday at our department we have watched movie of the modern time ' Charlie Chaplin ' and film also direct, produced and acted by him ( Charlie Chaplin ). Charlie Chaplin is a funny comedy movie of modern time however this silent film presents a very serious socialist critique of modern times society. Chaplin portrayed a roll as factory worker. in this age people were like machine who work constantly, so he spies on his workers by CCTV camera. he scolds them when they smoke during their five minute break.



                    The boss of Chaplin in this film try a new machine enables a worker to eat while doing job because he does not want to give any time for relaxation but machine not work properly so his boss decides not to use it. Chaplin includes many scenes in which we see capitalist society of modern time. capitalist enterprise that has no concern for workers safety, welfare or happiness.

                   They both are struggle to find out job. chaplin keeps losing job and facing unemployment and prison while chaplin in a prison Ellen find a job at cafe but their temporary success ends when police come to arrest Ellen. here chaplin emphases that modern society makes life very hard for women.

                     
                           At the endof film they both are walked on the road but they have some hope. During the whole film they face many problems but at the end we can see their positive attitude towards life they have hope to live in happy life. in this film we also see capitalist society of modern time, so this film helps a lot to understand the modern time and mentality of that time peoples and also we see politics of modern time.

                          Thanks to Barad sir to show us this movie. its really very helpful to understand situation of modern time.

In the Very first book of the series begins with Lily’s Choice to protect her son at the cost of her own life. The question of choice v/s chance run throughout the Harry Potter series.

Dumbledore insists on the importance of personal choice in determining outcome, rather than either chance or fate. The character of harry potter always choose choice in entire series of the novel “Harry...

Thinking activity: 'The Da Vinci Code'

T his task is given by Pro. Dilip Barad, to look at worksheet   click here 1. Brown states on his website that his books are not  a nti-Christian, though he is on a 'constant spiritual journey' himself, and says that his book   The Da Vinci Code   is simply "an entertaining story that promotes spiritual discussion and debate" and suggests that the book may be used "as a positive catalyst for introspection and exploration of our faith."  Dan Brown asserts that his books are not anti-Christian, and it is right also because he wants to reveal the facts. He also says that he is on the spiritual journey as he portrays the characters who have faith in the religion. Through the murder mystery he unfolds the factual things about the Christianity.     if we look deeply then we can find that there is much serious issues on which Brown throws light. In a way he is trying to awaken the people from the blind faith.     there are sev...
