Title Best
Gold Rush, The (Warner)=

    The content of this disc is the same in every Region. However, it should be noted that the Region 1 version is a conversion from a PAL master to NTSC, and that the transfer has issues, in that there is ghosting and motion blurring as a result.

    The only official release of the 1942 version was a Region 1 disc from Image Entertainment, which is no longer available. This version was apparently not in as good condition as the new release, and contained as extras an earlier scenario about a gold strike, an interview with Lita Grey, some production records and a photo gallery.

    I have a Region 1 release from Koch which is of the 1942 version, but with the narration removed and a music score added, so it is effectively a bootleg. The score is just generic and was not written for the film, so frequently it does not fit the on-screen action. The transfer is not as good as the new one either.

    There have been numerous public domain releases of the 1925 version, including one in Region 4 which I have not seen, but I believe that this new release contains the best available transfer of the film.
