Amazing what they could do without color, without sound...


This movie, silent and black & white though it is, still manages - some 90 years later - to tell a compelling story and convey some striking images without using any of today's movie-making technology.

Finding these great old silent movies is like discovering a dusty old adventure novel tucked away in some dark corner of the library.

But with an actor like Valentino, what couldn't they do? LOL!
