WORTH CONSUMING!

“The Spirit of Beauty breaks her blossoms all about his chamber.”

This is an exquisitely poetic silent film. Lillian Gish is luminous and heartbreaking as a sad, abused young girl. Its gorgeous images and tragic story will stay with me for some time.

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

Maybe old silent films just aren’t for me but I found the acting in this laughably atrocious, and it’s not really a film to laugh at. I was also horrified at the racism but perhaps that was normal then.
