...anyone who asks why The Gold Rush deserves the attention and dedication showcased in Warner's The Chaplin Collection might as well ask why we continue to crack open new editions of, say, Mark Twain, or ... Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue.

For Chaplin fans, this gift set is a treasure. For those who have never seen Chaplin, the discs serve as an entertaining introduction to a comedy colossus.

In his later life Chaplin would always say The Gold Rush was the film by which he most wanted to be remembered.
