Indeed, From Industry to Science-Fiction,  man versus machine is an ongoing topic. Literally from when the first films were made content revolved from the Industrial Revolution all the way to AI.  Sometimes with humour sometimes with terrifying effects.  Machines have permitted us to make technological progress, including making films and are therefore partly the tools responsible for our success.   The concept of machines overtaking humanity is a popular theme.

It depicts a futuristic urban state, in which the upper classes dominate the working classes who live and work &#8216;under&#8217; the city. The workers operate massive machines and many die doing so. It\u2019s the first movie to ever explore the concept of dystopia caused by technological advancements. It reflects the scepticism of many towards technology at the time.

It is the first film containing Chaplin\u2019s voice, who plays a Little Tramp working on an assembly line. The piece is a commentary on the difficulties faced by workers during the Great Depression. It denounces the deplorable work conditions caused by the arrival of machines in factories. The machines dictating the pace, and workers struggling to keep up or being replaced. It is the reality of industrialization, the real-life Man v Machine. As much a comedy as a social comment of its time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"ALPHAVILLE - Trailer\" width=\"580\" height=\"326\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CzaATgGHmy0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Alphaville<\/strong> by Jean-Luc Godard. 1965<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">This 1965 movie was written by Paul Eluard and Jean-Luc Godard.

In this metropolis, the citizens are controlled by a computer. Agent Caution is on a quest to destroy the tyrannical machine. Alphaville reflected the worries of society at the time.

The plot revolves around US space missions, after a period of signs of extra-terrestrial life or even superior pre-human intelligence. The film explores technological innovation and its risks. For instance, man creates machines but doesn\u2019t fully comprehend them. In particular, the nuclear age is brought into question. The film was made and shown before  man had even landed on the moon as this didn&#8217;t happen until 1969.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Blade Runner (1982) Official Trailer - Ridley Scott, Harrison Ford Movie\" width=\"580\" height=\"326\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eogpIG53Cis?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Blade Runner<\/strong> by Ridley Scott 1982<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"> This 1982 Sci-Fi is set in a dystopian Los Angeles in the year 2019. \u201creplicants\u201d,  humanoid robots, who were originally designed to aid society, have rebelled.

It follows a Tokyo man, whose body is slowly turning into metal. All the while he is tormented by a mystery man. The movie depicts an inversion of transhumanism.

It\u2019s about the accidental discovery of time travel by two engineers who work from their garage. As expected, the invention ends up causing complications when they try to use it for gain. This is another case of a man using a technology that he has yet to fully comprehend. Noted for its extremely low budget, experimental plot structure, philosophical implications, and complex technical dialogue, Carruth, a college graduate with a degree in mathematics and a former engineer, chose not to simplify for the sake of the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Finch \u2014 Official Trailer | Apple TV+\" width=\"580\" height=\"326\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-0bYWnP3jH4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Finch<\/strong> by Miguel Sapochnik  2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">But sometimes machinery and technology can be presented in films as positive.

But Finch is dying supposedly of radiation poisoning. He decides to create a robot to care for his dog when he dies. This robot is named Dewey, and he ends up making a great companion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;But we must not forget that machines are tools that have worked hand in hand with man for the betterment of humanity. In fact, the progress that has brought us to where we are today is possible thanks to machines. Even if machines have replaced some occupations, computers have spawned new jobs, bringing new work that couldn\u2019t have existed before. hence why we finished with a film that depicts the machine in a positive way,  and let us see where AI takes us on the next part of this journey<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">If you enjoyed reading Man v Machine why not read<a href=\"https:\/\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/unique-portraits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Unique Portraits<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">.Cent Magazine London,&nbsp;<strong>Be Inspired;&nbsp;<em>Get involved<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Man, machine, Action! the cry of the director, as he calls to arms his main players in his unfolding celluloid&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":276,"featured_media":126067,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[11,15924],"tags":[],"features_issues":[],"featured_themes":[16111],"ppma_author":[16853],"class_list":["post-126063","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-art","category-film","featured_themes-industrial"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Man, Machine - Action! | Cent Magazine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Machines have permitted us to make the technological progress we have.
