Description

Matthew Solomon's study of Chaplin's The Gold Rush (1925) provides an in-depth discussion of the film's production and reception history, placing it in the context of the turn-of-the-century Alaska Klondike gold rush, and analyses the film's narrative and formal features, particularly its references to music-hall performance styles and tropes.

Author Biography:

Matthew Solomon is Associate Professor of Screen Arts and Cultures at the University of Michigan, USA. He is the author of Disappearing Tricks: Silent Film, Houdini, and the New Magic of the Twentieth Century and editor of Fantastic Voyages of the Cinematic Imagination: Georges Méliès's Trip to the Moon.
