Summary: In Naples, where prostitutes can pay their rent, Angela is sentenced to a year in the workhouse when she tries to steal(while streetwalking) to pay for medicine for her dying mother. She escapes and is hidden by a circus, where she's a natural talent and meets Gino, a painter. When she breaks her ankle in a fall, her career ends. What can she and Gino do? He wants to go to Naples, but the law may still be looking for her, and Gino doesn't know about her past. (imdb)

Might be my favorite Borzage, an achingly beautiful film.

I had to split this into two sessions, which is something I don't like to do and it might have affected my enjoyment of the film. I thought the first half was great, but the second half was mostly unremarkable melodrama. The lead actress was consistently good.

There's a beautiful character in Angela that Gaynor personifies perfectly, and the experiments with sound added a lot to the romance, the pain, and the dreamy atmosphere of the city and circus; almost like a poem or a song. What really crushed me though was that abrupt turn to horror and back again at the end; devastating.

A wonderful technical achievement, it's one of the best produced silent films I've seen with some incredibly long, unbroken tracking shots. Janet Gaynor is as cute as a button and a fine actress, but this type of tragically sweet romantic drama is just not my bag. I can appreciate the obvious talent on display, though.
