For this black and white silent film nearly a hundred years ago, Roger Ebert’s words seem to describe our feelings very well: "You have to cooperate with it when you watch this movie-even active sympathy for it. Heart."

For us with impetuous minds, watching such a traditional three-act silent film...

1. 1919! Almost 100 years ago! A reason for liking old movies has been found. They are already familiar with the suffering, so unlike today's movies, they always try to give an ending and a fulfillment. At that time, it was clean and neat, click, THE END, open and upright.

Sad story Wow, the white actor squinted his eyes and humped back and played the Chinese unexpectedly. There is no sense of sadness. The girl is slender and pitiful, and the subtitles are full of what words can bring (I don't know how to say it). It turns out that from the beginning, American films have a temperament of "ah, this is an American film" hhh. The film is so smooth that I forget that I am also a person who has seen color and sound films. I think that film is not just such a thing. The director composes the music and the actors use clear and beautiful. His performance is filled with words, full of emotions, and charming. Another fear of smashing the door with a big axe thinks of the scenes of the Shining, the fog, and the cold river. When you zoom in, it will change the performance of the picture at that time. There must be Chinese people involved in the work. There is no unclear text and so on.

In 1919, the storm calling for Desai swept the land of China, but on the other side of the ocean, DG showed off the style of the late Qing Dynasty. Let alone 1919, how much has changed a hundred years later? It's heartbreaking how Lillian Gish sticks her fingers out for a smile. Perhaps her father, Batin, smashed a house of antiques...
