“Charlie Chaplin’s ‘Modern Times’ can still draw a massive crowd after 80 years. An estimated 7,000 spectators packed Bologna’s Piazza Maggiore square to catch the 1936 classic starring Chaplin and Paulette Goddard in a restored version with live musical accompaniment on Saturday, as it opened the 30th edition of the Il Cinema Ritrovato festival dedicated to rediscovered gems. […] The event is run by Italy’s Cineteca di Bologna, the prominent film archives known globally as a prime film-preservation entity. After dedicating more than a decade to the restoration of Charlie Chaplin’s entire oeuvre, it is currently working on a multiyear project to restore all of Buster Keaton’s films, in tandem with New York-based Cohen Media Group.”
