If anyone doubts that Charlie Chaplin was one of the funniest comedians ever or that silent films did not require acting ability, t you a commend this film, as well as City Lights. Modern Times isn't, strictly speaking, a silent film, although Chaplin had no dialogue there. The Gold Rush, while not Chaplin's best film, does feature his best performance and has so many classic bits, it must be seen. Excellent film. 1942 version redone by Chaplin is a bit better, but either will do. Most highly recommended.
