12/11/2021 This is a lost film as only two fragments survive both from the ending, including the only color footage of Clara Bow. It is the only Academy Award winning performance (Jannings) with no known complete copy of the film. It is one of Victor Flemings' many lost silent films of the 1920s. It was remade in 1940. See more @Cameron11 08/31/2021 From the two fragments I have seen that show the ending, The Way of All Flesh looks like a really intriguing film. It makes me wonder what happened to Jannings' character in this film to separate himself from his family and most notably his successful son. From these two reels, it gives you a glimpse to Jannings' performance that led him to win the first Best Actor Oscar. I might watch the 1940 remake to have a better understanding of the story. Hopefully, the film will be found in the future although it seems unlikely. It's also funny that the film is "Certified Fresh" with a critics consensus even though the film is lost.

See more Ametrine A 08/14/2019 Only about three minutes of this film still exist, which can easily be found on Youtube. Even with just those three minutes, Jannings' performance shines through. It's a shame film preservation came too late for great performances like I'm sure this one was. See more 12/28/2017 Jannings' the only Academy Award-winning performance with no known complete copy of the film preserved. And just watching the only two parts that existed know you can see how great is his performance in this picture. See more Read all reviews
