The First Degree (1923)
Good Silent Film Done In By Score
28 November 2022 - 5 out of 6 users found this review helpful.
A more than decent silent film was ruined by a horrible musical score. Doesn't fit the period or silent film at all. I took a point off just for that. I can even forgive the too tidy predictable ending but the music is unforgivable.
The acting was good and the lead actor did a great job not over doing it which could have easily happened. The actor playing his half brother could have done a better job though.
There were a couple really done well film sequences. Nothing new or ground breaking even for the time, but good elements for such a lost film in any case.
It's short and none of the time is wasted. Totally worth the viewing.
