The Gold Rush
(1925)
OK, no review needed, but this is a rare instance when I have the chance to perform a useful service: if you rent the DVD from Netflix or from any store that has the Chaplin Collection edition, do NOT rent the main disc. Instead, get the bonus disc: that is where you'll find the original silent version. The one on the first disc features an unsilenceable and annoying narration--never mind that it's by Chaplin himself, it is nonetheless unnecessary crap.I don't know what you get if you stream it from Nf, but I suspect the worst.
