Lillian Gish's screams were so loud and desperate that a crowd gathered outside the studio, and Griffith's collaborators had to go out and reassure everyone that it was only a movie being filmed. (from the book Defining moments in Movies, 2007)
@TheDutchMajor i dont understand this shit, why this scene gets so much love thru history. this fucking girl just spins around like a retarded lost dog a couple times, pantomimes screaming, and faking crying. this is bloody awful, honestly. you cant tell where the guy is coming from, or what shes looking at. if anything this scene is hilarious, showing awful, horrid acting at its absolute peak of horribleness. she doesnt even look scared! her career must've been absolute shit if this is her best
@lazer59882 A criminal a crazy man with an ax is trying to break a door to probably: hurt, torture, rape, mutilate and finally kill a young girl WITH AN AX. And you say that she spins like a retarted lost dog. What are you? A sadist, rapist or perv? Probably is more realistic than most garbage nowadays. It was the 1910s with crude techniques and limitations. What were you expecting her to do dope? Take a machine gun look badass and say: go to hell asshole (as most movies nowadays portray?) Dumb!
@9carva ur an idiot. the man is his father and hes about to beat her cause he ran away and stayed at an asian mans house because he was always drunk. theres no rape torture or mutilation. maybe instead of trying to be a hipster you could find out what the movie was a bout first
Just saw this movie last night.... even after all the desensitization over the decades since, this performance is still capable of making a serious impression. thanx 4posting!!
