I think the Gold Rush question has already been answered better than I could have.
Gold Rush was my introduction to Chaplin when I was maybe 8. And I loved it then. I'm not sure if I"ve seen it since though.
Most of the rest I've revisited. With the exception of The Circus, which I also loved when I was young. But is one I always forget exists.
I'd probably rank those I've seen like this
1) City Lights
2) Modern Times
3) The Circus
4) The Gold Rush
5) The Great Dictator
6) The Kid
7) Monsieur Verdoux
7) Limelight (barely remember it)
Don't have an objectionable thing to say about any of them.
