Exciting story of two lovers of war torn Italy. Lillian Gish plays the daughter of a Prince whose sister hates her. Ronald Colman plays an army officer whose brother is a Professer determined to discover the secret of the volcano the town rests upon. When Lillian's father is killed when he falls off his horse her sister inherits everything, banishing Lillian from the palace. Ronald goes on an expedition to Africa only after Lillian promises to marry him when he return and is supposedly killed. This movie starts off a bit slow but then picks up rapidly. An excellent movie which I'd highly recommend to all silent movie buffs or Lillian Gish and Ronald Colman fans.
