Fine Griffith film with an absolutely tremendous final sequence.

Fernando F. Croce 05 Aug 2012

One of Griffith's most rousing visions of film as visual-emotional ebb and flow, connection and rupture

Some scenes seemed to drag on forever, but I won't be too critical of one of the most innovative films of American motion picture history. Yes, it's not relevant to today's audiences and yes, it's very long. The music gets annoying and repetitive at times. But the storyline was compelling enough to at least keep me awake.

The pacing is solid, and Griffith varies as he can between medium and close-ups, mostly. Griffith employs one brief tracking shot as the town gossip goes to reveal Anna's secret, to good effect. The film's most intriguing sequence is the final one in the storm, as Griffith effectively builds tension through montage, including some excellent shots of the frozen river. Gish is also her watchable, delicate self, the baptism scene being one of the high points of this melodrama.

A very good and powerful drama with a wonderful performance by the lovely Lillian Gish.(08)
