"The naive gold diggers pin their hopes and dreams on Alaska in the Northland. Thousands of gold diggers from all over the world braved the danger of cold, hunger, wind and snow, and stepped into the unfamiliar and unknowable land, Qiluked Ridge— - The most dangerous place, many people died in this mountain, or they were exhausted and dropped out of the team, only the brave people continued to move forward" This is the subtitle of the opening scene of the film "Gold Rush", explaining the film's Background of the story: There is a boom in the society to find gold mines. Everyone thinks that if they find gold mines, they will find a way to get rich. The film specifically tells the accidental experience of one of the homeless people named Charlie getting rich, but the ups and downs are really poignant. The gray humor of the film is embedded in each storyline, and Charlie's appearance is extremely humorous. He is also a member of the gold rush, but he acts alone and appears to be a maverick. He walked easily on crutches on the cliff, and with him came a big black bear, which Charlie had no idea about. The twisted, exaggerated opening provides the audience with a strong sense of humor, but also hints at the dangers of finding the gold mine. Although it is a silent film, it does not affect the viewer's viewing behavior at all. The pictures constructed by black and white have a heavy sense of the vicissitudes of the times. At the same time, the interlacing of black and white adds to the comedy color of the play, which strongly enhances the gray humor of the comedy. , the artistic effect of black and white also impacted people's visual impact.
