The Gold Rush

The Gold Rush
Een eenzame goudzoeker reist af naar Alaska, op zoek naar goud. Hij raakt betrokken bij enkele andere goudzoekers, en wordt verliefd op de mooie Georgia. Hij probeert met zijn charmes haar hart te veroveren.
I really liked the cinematography but the comedy wasn’t special, there were very few gags that I found funny but the rest is pretty mild. Chaplin also takes his first L for kicking a dog during the dance scene. I also didn’t find the story engaging. The movie still has charm though, the music is really good and the snowy vistas have a transportive quality. And I appreciate the effort that went into the gags, especially the balancing cabin at the end. A well directed movie that unfortunately didn’t capture me.
