This Director was a Master at his craft by the time he made this one.

I love silent movies, have Rudolph Valentinos naturally. But Lillian and Richard Barthelmess shine in this.

movie number 6 of the "highest grossing film" marathon . . . im glad that guy found that spec of dust he was looking for. Who wants to watch "a simple story of plain people" tho thats such an ass pitch

They need to do another restoration where they recreate the lost scenes. You don’t need that digital motion capture technology that recreate an actor/actress’ likeness on another double’s body. Just do it the old fashioned way like it was filmed. Something like what Peter Jackson did when he recreated the lost spider pit sequence for the original King Kong, where he used the same film and special effects technique the filmmakers and Willis O’Brien used during the making of the original. All they need is to make the costumes, sets and location match with the original existing footage. It would be more efficient than just using text and photo stills.
