Most people don't watch black and white movies, much less the ones that are Silent.
The Silent movies emphasized facial features, close ups and emotion more than current movies.
This movie was good. It was a nice story with a happy ending.
It 's fun to read the biographies behind the stars of Silent Movies. They were just as big in their day as Leonard Dicaprio and Johnny Depp are today. But they have been completely forgotten.
