On this episode of The Video Archives Podcast, Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary strike it rich in The Gold Rush. A gold prospector, played by Charlie Chaplin, struggle to survive the elements while he tries to win the heart of a dance hall girl. Viewed all together at the New Beverly Cinema, Quentin and Roger discuss the reaction of the audience, the success of a physical silent comedy, and directors who had the power to get stuff done.

Quentin and Roger are in the stadium in Two-Minute Warning to discuss the history of the film, it’s connections to Black Sunday, and how the various stories coalesce into one final shot. And to wrap up the night, a Crown International title: The Pom Pom Girls. It’s full of pranks, romps, and good ole fashion cheer. Come on down to the game, it’ll be a blast.
