Once more Lon Chaney steals the show
25 August 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Anyway, every movie directed by Tod Browning and starring Lon Chaney were worth - and not worse !! - any movie. Even those not from Tod Browning were too. Lon Chaney was for me the best actor from the silent era, more than Rudolph Valentino who was just handsome, but his performance however were not at the scale of Chaney's. This one is unavoidable for those who like Lon Chaney. Here, as usual, he plays a downbeat character, he is not the pure positive hero in the American way. And the fight in the end is purely awesome in terms of editing. I was so amazed !!! Was this the result of a restore job or what? A true gem to be seen at once.
