FREE Outdoor Movie at Craftsbury Common on the Green

Monday, August 10

7:30 - 8:00 pm - Arrival and locally produced short films
8 - 9:50 pm - Feature Film, "The Gold Rush," starring Charlie Chaplin

"The Gold Rush (1925) is Charlie Chaplin's greatest and most ambitious silent film and contains many of his most celebrated comedy sequences, including the boiling and eating of his boot, the dance of the rolls, and the teetering cabin. The film presents adventures on a grand, heroic scale… The hero-clown survives the cruelty of nature and the villainy of humanity through his luck, pluck, and enterprise. Chaplin's theme for the film is the quest for basic human needs—food, money, shelter, acceptance, and love—set in the harsh environment of the Gold Rush." - J. Vance

*Participants must follow COVID safety practices and bring their own chairs or blankets for appropriate physically distant seating*
