 Gold Rush was directed by Charlie Chaplin in 1925, which was during the silent era. Camera shots have been used since the beginning of film with different connotations and denotations. 

During the snow storm, extreme long shots and establishing shots are used to show the empty mountains, which connotes loneliness. When both The Tramp and Black Larsen get forced into the same cabin by gusts of wind it is instantly made clear that The Tramp fears Black Larsen. Charlie uses high angle and low angle shots when the two share the screen. It is clear that The Tramp is inferior, from his old, torn clothing to each little jagged movement he makes.  The acting style from Charlie creates verisimilitude as the lack of sound means the only way to create a narrative is in the expressions used by each actor.
