Premiered in 1925, The Gold Rush is considered Chaplin’s greatest silent film, and made him an international star. Set in the 1890’s Alaskan Klondike Gold Rush, Chaplin is a poor, lonely prospector, who ventures north in hope of finding fortune. Through his comedic adventures he fights villains, falls in love with a beautiful girl, strikes it rich, and sails home from Alaska, a millionaire!
