@Plasjif That's just the way we spoke back then. I remember singing "red and yellow, black and white" in Sunday school.

Recently discovered this beautiful, moving film on Netflix and it has quickly become one of my favorites. And tristanladyhawk, Valentino is my passion too! Because of him, I have discovered other silent films I love such as this one, "Way Down East," and several others. Thank you for positing this--wonderful video.:)

Nosferatu

[aszeryudiko]

I can watch a gory zombie movie where every single character is torn to pieces by their former friends and find some silly detail to laugh at, but just one scene from this movie makes me cry. And this scene isn't even the saddest bit of the movie. Amazing.

My first silent flim was nosferatu then orphans of the storm and then this.

I'm only 11. I hope to watch more lillian gish films. i am watching only the ones on netflix.

God, what beauty! Thanks, really, watching this one scene is enough to convince me to watch the whole movie.

Thank you so much for posting this. This beautiful scene stuck in my mind and I finally saw the whole movie and loved it.. all because I randomly came across this clip you posted.

[tristansladyhawk]

That is such a wonderful thing to know, thank you so much. I'm so very glad you loved this film, it's one of my very favoutite silents.

one of the most heart breaking films I have ever seen. Ms. Gish and Mr. Barthelmess' performance moves me to tears everytime I watch this film.

Such a delicately ethereal film and performances from

the two stars.

Great video clip and I've given you five stars. I've created a video clip featuring Richard Barthelmess and many other 1920's movie stars.
