One of my favorite lines in the movie is when her tells her "Your hair is like a jealous cloud, veiling the beautiful moon" ahhhh, great lines, great cinematography!
Happy Belated Birthday!!!!!!!!!! You were one of my favorite actresses from the silent era. I wish you had continued a long career in sound since you successfully transitioned into talking pictures. You had a beautiful voice. I stay spellbound when you talk in the documentary Hollywood: The Pioneers (1980).
I was enchanted by this film. Gilbert and Boardman are MAGNIFICENT, and the supporting cast is perfect. Humor, action, heartbreak...and absolutely terrible swordfight choreography :^)...this film has it all!
That is such a beautiful scene, showing the extent of the transformation that has overtaken Bardelys the former rake, now the tender lover. And those damn leaves! Dreamlike.
How does the film end? TCM's recent screening cut off--on my Tivo-scheduled recording of it--after Chatelleraut's death right as the king says "...but Bardelys never WANTED a wife before." I hope that is the last line of the film, and I have essentially all of it.
dreamy scene ....I wish I could see the whole movie, the DVD is on sale on amazon but it costs a great deal !
