Although I have not seen all of Douglas Fairbanks' silent films and I don't think I ever will, I think this is his most elaborate and most stunning production. He once again plays D'Artagnan as he did in "The Three Musketeers" (1921). This was his last silent feature but he did allow dialogue for the prologue at the start of the picture. Allan Dwan expertly directs and photographs this masterpiece. Douglas Fairbanks Sr. was the greatest of all the silent stars. I was also pleased to see Stanley Sandford in a different role for him. He was a supporting comic to Laurel & Hardy and Charlie Chaplin and it's good that Fairbanks hired Sandford to play Porthos which is a pretty good role for Sandford considering he was just a comic. The rest of the cast is great as is the film. I give it a 9 out of 10 and a must see!
