LOL! I bet the wife was like, omg...my husband's crazy, rowing the boat like some psycho. Oh, and look! All the animals are running away. Greeeaattt :P

[limenlimpidgreen]

That's my favorite movie baby ever!! So stinking precious!! :)

[trulyinfemous]

George O'Brien's back acting is so phenomenal, I actually wish people acted with their backs more, a lot of people over use their hands and their faces, and forget simple things like posture... it's a surprisingly emotive part of the anatomy...

[rloeb]

that with the dog was genius...

[Nickthetoast]

Well, they say actors should never work with children and animals, but both are really good in this...

Is this the first example of 'doggie-dar' in cinema history?

[manlyman80345]

This film is incredible. The sequence on the boat is so powerful it's amazing. This wasn't the first silent film I ever saw, nor is it the last, but I still am in awe of how powerfully conveyed and expressed the emotions are through pure images moreso than music and dialogue.

This scene reminds me of 'Snow White' when the hunter is about to kill her, but then stops. The Wife's facial expression matches Snow White's exactly xD

[AvantGardeGuy2]

I wouldn't be too surprised if Disney was inspired by that scene, salty. Murnau's "Faust" was the major inspiration for the Bald Mountain scene "Fantasia".

The Sight and Sound Poll 2002 taken every ten years where all the world's greatest film critics and directors each make a list of their top ten movies and then all the most repeated ones are put on a list. You can search on Yahoo.

[mishinners]

Actually the film is pretty highly rated. It's considered one of the 10 best movies ever made. Doesn't get much higher rated than that!

[wwerulestna]

By who?

[jillhaileybennyryan]

most underrated film ever made most enthralling and thrilling also! :)

[LifeIsBeautiful90]

this makes me so angry! lol i hate the husband!!!

[johnmair]

it's the power of the pussy

[ConfusedSponge]

but the wife has one too. why isn't it powerful?

[johnmair]

not as fresh

[fjdmusicman]

johnmair, that was such a crude answer...but it was so funny !

[NikodeemNJ]

WOW!!!! What a powerful and affecting scene! It's amazing that something could still be so potent after all these years. Murnau is a masterful director. The way the husband transforms into a dark brute when he rises in the boat while the wife remains a white light of virtue. The characters are alive! The actors are brilliant and the director is a genius. Thanks so much for posting this!

[meandmy2phans]

I absolutely love this film. Thank you so much for posting it. Ms. Gaynor's acting in this particular piece - especially when she's waiting for him to return after bringing the dog back, is incredible.

[PipamirSolo]

Ms. Gaynor won an oscar for this film :)

[pucci1981]

Up to tears...

[MissyHolland]

Redeeming Light, I'm curious, since you're

a Chaplin fan. Did you like City Lights?

The mood - tempo- milieu, whatever you want

to call it, is similiar to this.

[LoveCraken]

You suck.

[PurpleVolvagia]

blow it out your ass

[kailaisaprat]

[kailaisaprat]
