The classic comedy, Modern Times by Charlie Chaplin is available
for a few days on TCM on demand.  The film is about factory driven
crazy by the machines.  The film is still very relevant today--we
see management trying to eke out ever more production out of the
workers.  They even had CCTV to spy on workers sneaking a break
in the bathroom.

Also on TCM on demand is the film "A Face in the Crowd", about
an egotistic man who is turned to a huge superstar by TV
producers.  The guy ends up with an outsized ego.  Worth
watch for today's political world.
