    The Gold Rush

    ★★★★½

    1925 version - not quite as lean and well written as Modern Times, The Kid, or City Lights (I think the episodic nature works against it here), but overall some excellent sequences. It’s Chaplin, so even a lesser film is still a masterpiece!

    ★★★★★

    A fascinating portrait of a fascinating man. Cannot recommend enough - essential viewing for this moment in history.

    Despicably racist and should only be seen in the context of academic interest in early sound recording for the cinema.

    Zombie Strippers!

    ★★★

    The best joke in the film is when Jenna Jameson, freshly zombified, is reading Nietzsche and shouts “this finally makes sense now!!!”
