Product Description

The first feature-length comedy by Charlie Chaplin (Modern Times)—which charts a hapless prospector’s search for fortune in the Klondike and his discovery of romance (with the beautiful Georgia Hale)—forever cemented the iconic status of Chaplin and his Little Tramp character. Shot partly on location in the Sierra Nevadas and featuring such timeless gags as Chaplin’s dance of the dinner rolls and meal of boiled shoe leather, The Gold Rush is an indelible work of nonstop hilarity. This special edition features both Chaplin’s definitive 1942 version, for which the director added new music and narration, and a new restoration of the original silent 1925 film.

One of the Greatest Films by one of the Greatest Film Artists
One of Charlie's greatest films. And here you can see it in its original format, and its revised format done several years later. I prefer the original, without Chaplin's voice-over. The quality of the film is as clean and sharp as the day it was shot, thanks to Criterion. This is a classic, which belongs on the "must see" list of anyone interested in movies.

このレビューは「黄金狂時代 / THE GOLD RUSH クライテリオン版 サイレント映画 / チャーリー・チャップリン[Blu-ray]」のレビューです。

チャップリン黄金狂時代は、サイレント版(1925年)とトーキー版(1942年)の2種類が見ることが出来る優れモノのブルーレイ。
DVDでも特典映像として収録されていましたが、やはり高画質のブルーレイの解像度はファンには堪らない1枚です。
この映画に関して蘊蓄は必要なし。
詳しい事は他のレビュアーの方にお任せして、私は画質に関してレビューしたいと思います。

輸入盤の高画質ソフトの老舗クライテリオン社製のブルーレイと、この度発売された日本版のブルーレイを比較して見ました。
まず特典映像に関しては、同じ内容のモノもありますが、別の特典映像が各々にあるため、ファンならばやはり両方のブルーレイを購入することをお勧めします。
本編の1942年トーキー版の画質は、日本盤もクライテリオン盤もほぼ同等の画質です。
「モダンタイムス」では、何と日本盤の方が明るく見やすい画質だったことはモダンタイムスのレビューを参考にしてください。
しかしこの「黄金狂時代」では、その差は殆どわからないほどの両者高画質です。
高画質と言っても古い作品ですから、キズもあればホコリも存在すると言うことで、販売された現存するソフトの中で一番綺麗だとお考えてください。
ところが両者の画質に差が出たのは、1925年サイレント版の方の画質です。
日本版は、綺麗はキレイなんですが、ビデオ感が残るような画質で、被写体のエッジに動きのあるシーンでは若干難があります。
クライテリオン版は、トーキー版の画質と比べるとシャープさはなくなりますが、結構綺麗な画質です。
とにかく、特典映像に差が出たという結果になりました。
従って1925年サイレント版では、クライテリオン社製のブルーレイの画質の方が綺麗です。
百聞は一見にしかず!
画像を比較して見てください。

と言うわけで、日本盤と輸入盤。
チャップリンのファンの方であれば両方を購入することをお勧めします。
輸入盤は当然のことながら日本語字幕はありませんが、元々サイレント映画だったので鑑賞して理解できないと言うことはない作品です。
購入時の判断材料に参考にしてください。
