User Reviews

The 45 Year Old Lionel Barrymore

It impresses me the way novels have been adapted for the silent screen like this film. One writer adapts it for the screen, another one works on character or dialogue, and then a final writer polishes up the script. The work that went behind this film was inspiring, but at the end of the day, I didn't find it entertaining.
