This silent film uses music and its fast editing pace to create the humour and comedy throughtout the film. If listening to the music without watching the video you will create in your imagination that the film will be a fast edited pace. Then watching this film with the music you will see how it compliements the film perfectly, when the workers are working in the factory and one of the actors jumpers into the machine just as the music gets higher and faster.. This is then followed by a trademark Chaplin style of the title cards saying 'Is he crazy?' Then going through the machine fully to come out the other side, through all the clogs and grinds the music changes to a simlaur theme to fairytale music.
This is one of the films most famous scenes, where everyone recongises the film
