@conangvuitinh193 The title is a little misleading, the film was produced in 1912 this was there first debut film, still got one more month to go ;)

@TheBookWorm1718 I saw this on a big screen at MoMA in New York and they look starkly different onscreen. They may well have looked more alike in life since, as everyone knows, the camera produces a different image from what we actually see and one never knows how it will pan out. Aaron Eckhart, for example, looks huge onscreen but I bumped into him on a subway a few years ago and he doesn't look like that at all in person, while with John Turturro it's precisely the other way around.

@Onlymusical Really? I read D.W. Griffith thought they were twins and so tied a red ribbon on one and a blue ribbon on the other and would direct them according to color, like 'Red, you here, Blue you respond to that', go figure.

Lillian is so Beautiful

Dear Lillian was a real patriot who was a member of America First and could not be bribed to resign for a big pay day.
A women of honor like does not exist in Hooolyweird today.

It's so odd that Lillian and Dorothy Gish don't resemble each other in the slightest. Dorothy looked good enough to carry her own pictures but Lillian was the real beauty with those huge expressive eyes. The problem for modern viewers is not unconsciously juxtaposing the way Lillian Gish looked later while watching her early work. The problem was that she still looked like herself only much older later on. This is the first movie with either Gish and it's very effective on a big screen.
Wow, what a cool plot. Dorothy's character sure had guts!
