Jamie H This movie is poorly written with terrible characters. The plot moves at a pace that prevents any tension from unfolding and ultimately amounts to a predictable boring & messy movie. Instead of this I wish I rewatched Step Brothers. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Audience Member Que nitidez de las imágenes de la película de hace mas de 100 años.? This is a 1910 Danish silent black-and-white drama film, written and directed by Urban Gad. The lead performance and natural acting by Asta Nielsen led to her international stardom. Because of the overt eroticism of Nielsen's performance, the film was censored in the United States. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Asta Nielsen is the greatest actress there ever was, and most likely the greatest actress there ever will be. She was able to say so much more with one look from her beautiful eyes, than most other actresses aren't able to say with a thousand words. Magde visits her fiancé in his parents' vicarage. One day, when she is bored and hanging around reading, a circus comes to town. Magda insits of visiting the circus and falls for the wrangler, who throws the lasso in the ring. The next night the wrangler intrudes into her bedroom and she follows him to a life of danger, adventure....and hunger. It is not easy to be an artist, but Magda becomes a dancer and she performs a very hot Gaucho dance! You would never expect such a dance in a movie from 1910. This movie has a much more risky story then you would expect and shows not only the sexy dance, but some violence some people would consider risky even today. Like when she gets dragged through the room on her hair. The dance: <div style="width:120px;font-size:10px;text-align:center;"></div><a href="http://www.flixster.com/videos?videoId=11147507"><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/criEcLXgUQ0/0.jpg" border="0" /></a><div style="font-size:10px;width:120px;text-align:center;"><a href="http://www.flixster.com"> Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
