& ? puzzled

Are you wondering why we persist in using

an unusual title like chechahco?

Couldn‘t we have found something simpler?

Certainly we could. We might have

named the picture The Gold Rush or The Birth of Alaska,

or what-not, but these would have classified

it as an ordinary movie. And that‘s just what this picture isn‘t.

just look at the above picture and shiver.

It is a scene from Associated Exhibitors Chechhacos.

The chief appeal of this independently made film play lies in the

sweep of its Alaskan backgrounds. These have a real

and rugged beauty.

„Are shortly to embark for the frozen north“

Editorial content. „United Artists“ (...)

      THE LATEST announcement from the Chaplin studio

is that the entire staff and cast employed in the new

feature length comedy the artist is producing, which will mark

his return to the pictures in the capacity of an actor,

are shortly to embark for the frozen north. The picture

is a burlesque of the gold-rush days of Alaska

and the purpose of the trip is to obtain realistic backgrounds.“
