Its great to see these films being acknowledged. One of the highlights of the year has been getting the Chaplin box set. Charles Chaplin was one of cinemas undeniable geniuses films like The Gold Rush will remain timeless forever. People can say what they like about todays films but they will never match the golden era's of cinema.
