Program Info: Charles Chaplin - The Gold Rush Silent film | United States 1925 Director, Screenplay and Music: Charlie Chaplin
For a prospector who wants to make his fortune on the Klondyke, Tramp Charlie seems extremely unsuitable. When he flees from a snowstorm and ends up in the notorious Big Jim's cabin of all places, things get dicey... In his masterpiece »Gold Rush« (as screenwriter, director, composer and leading actor), Charlie Chaplin developed the comic from the spirit of tragedy. You can't get enough of the touching and hilarious scenes in this classic silent film: Tramp Charlie's fight with the bear, the prospectors' hut being pushed along by the snowstorm or the famous bun dance. Hunger, cold, loneliness - nothing can shake the tramp in search of the big treasure!
