Viewing silent films is a great way to study basics of time, place, and gesture in filmmaking. Thanks for posting!

This is one of the greatest ones. I love how dark and distraught this one is; the disordered man doesn't understand this new semblance of human either that or he is confused as to why she frets when he is near her; the cross-cutting showing us and setting up the belief that you most definitely know he's not going to be there for long is a clear example of how to manipulate the audience emotionally. However, the Music to calm down patients, to me, I think it would most likely make them pent-up!
