Audience Member A story of jealousy and obsession. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Anthony Asquith's British silent film is extremely accomplished, a mixture of suspense, comedy and drama; the segment at the talking picture show is a classic. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Compelling stuff with some terrific camera techniques to boot. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I absolutely adore the way the themes were expressed in this film, the actors were beautiful and I'm a sucker for tragedy, what can I say. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Obsessive love, attempted murder, escape from prison; this, one of the last British silent films, has it all. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member an amazing film!~ i'm shocked i had never heard of this til a few weeks ago. this late silent is easily the equal of anything hitchcock was doing. it's a shame asquith's later work doesn't show the vitality and beauty of this early thriller. beginning with a prison escape, most of the film plays as an extended flashback with extraordinary camerawork and expressionistic shadowplay. loved it!
