      Pathos, Poetry and Farce Linked in Chaplin‘s

      Offering, ,The Gold Rush‘

      By MORDAUNT HALL

      TO want to go to any show four times, especially a screen

entertainment, is at least something in its favor, but

to be able to enjoy that picture as much, if not more, the fourth

time speaks still louder in the film‘s praise.“ (...)

      „If you find that you expected something more brusque,

something more hilarious than this picture, go to it a

second time, and perhaps you will come away looking forward

to seeing it again. We count looking at this production

on of the compensations for having to view so many unworthy

photoplays.“
