    The Gold Rush (1925)

1. Relate what was discussed in class or the text to the screening.
    I can say after knowing the knowledge I know about Charlie Chaplin. Seeing him in an actual film was a very great inspiration and he was a very great actor of this time, Charlie Chaplin was the Johnny Depp of the 1900's as an actor. Charlie Chaplin made a lot of money off this Film. It took around $1,000,000 to create this film but he was such a huge success that it made $6,000,000 back in sales.



2. Find a related article and summarize the content.
    http://decentfilms.com/reviews/goldrush

   This Website/Source rated the Rush as a great top movie of its time period.




3. Apply the article to film screened in class. 
This Film was a very significant to a lot of films and future films. Charlie Chaplin paved the way for a lot of  Director,  Actors and even more.

4.  Write a critical analysis of the film,including your personal opinion,formed as a result of the screening,class discussions,text material and the article.
     This film was a great film all around because knowing film from today and film from back then I could not watch this, but I actually enjoyed this film and i was laughing a lot even though there was not any sound at all. Its amazing how the editing was done back in the day because editing was done by cutting pieces and putting them together and that is a very cool way to edit I would've never thought editing was done this way
