Description
The Gold Rush (1925) is perhaps Charlie Chaplin’s most famous film. Most silent comedies magnify minutiae to ridiculous proportions, but here Chaplin did the inverse—he took an epic historical event, the Klondike gold rush, and made it intimate by focusing on Charlie’s loneliness and will to survive. Featuring an original score by Ben Model, the opener for Charlie is Hal Roach’s short Riders of the Kitchen Range (1925).
