Captain Long Story, US Cavalry Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 The Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1890s infected dreamers from allover the world with mining fever, spurring them to depart for the uncharted wilderness of northwest Canada. Inspired by period diaries and photographs, German helmer-scribe Thomas Arslan’s astutely cast, beautifully crafted “Gold” tells the story of a diverse group of Germans who set off on the trek with great hopes. This involving, naturalistic period piece, full of tension and immediacy, satisfyingly exploits the conventions of the late-era Western as well as its ruggedly majestic landscapes, and could spell healthy returns, if not B.O. gold, for select arthouse distributors. http://variety.com/2013/film/reviews/gold-1117949202/ Another review - http://www.cineuropa.org/ff.aspx?t=ffocusarticle&l=en&tid=2515&did=240555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bama Red Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Looks like it might actually be a good film. Wonder if it will reach a large enough audience for it to be released on DVD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
