Movies hardly make me cry, but this one certainly made me tear a little. This one was great!

This intricate and beautiful Gothic romance is so riveting and heartbreaking, I quickly forgot it was a silent film. The community of clowns, kings, and every class in between is colored with such wonderful bigness: big acting, big sets, big plots, and even some big humor. At the center is Conrad Veidt as the title character, who starts as creepy and becomes stunningly heartbreaking, in one of the greatest performances of the silent (or of any) era. A bonafide, 100%, straight-up masterpiece of genre-jumping.

You'd have to be outright ignorant to not be able to appreciate this film exactly as is. The characters are beautifully human, the plot is original, and Viktor Hugo will not steer you wrong :-)

Great old picture... no sound. Conrad Veidt is pretty amazing. I will definitely look into more of his movies. A little racy too, this new medium was titillating to the public I would imagine. Watched it because of its association with the Joker in Batman, although his Gwynplaine is the hero...

the original silent film based on victor hugo's novel that inspired sardonicus and of course the joker from batman. conrad veidt in the lead role is much more sympathetic than those characters and it's as much a love story as gothic horror, like hunchback of notre dame and phantom of the opera. german expressionist director paul leni gives it alot of style and veidt is fantastic, wearing a prostethic mouthpiece that didn't even allow him to speak
