Come dressed in 1920s fashion and get into the spirit of “The Gold Rush”.The movie runs approx. 95 minutes.

“The Gold Rush” covers the tragedy and misery suffered by the pioneers who first journeyed to the icebound Alaska, and braved mountains, ice, snow and starvation in their mad rush for gold. But in Chaplin fashion is turned into one of the funniest and most hilarious comedies of his career.

The film is Not Rated, but should be appropriate for ages 10+.

The Flat Rock Cinema is located at 2700-D Greenville Hwy, Flat Rock, NC 28731
