Final answer:
The statement is false; in 'Modern Times,' Charlie Chaplin's character gets his job as a singing waiter through his own efforts and with the help of the gamin, not through the sheriff.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement that the final job the Chaplin character has in Modern Times is gotten for him by the sheriff is false. In the film, it is indeed the factory worker character played by Charlie Chaplin who finds his own job. Towards the end of the film, after a series of unfortunate events, including stints in jail and various jobs, he lands a position as a singing waiter through his own comic mishaps and the help of the gamin, a young homeless woman played by Paulette Goddard, not the sheriff.
