Dir. Rupert Julian
Genres: Horror, Classics / Silent Cinema

5 stars (Exceptional) ~Wyatt Earp
3 stars (Good Enough) Sooo different from the other versions I've seen, including the musical. Also strange to have a film based on the love of music with no sound whatsoever. No background organ, nothing. Lon Chaney is great; Christine annoying. ~BabyJane
