Mini-Review: Off with this movie's head. Amirite? Eh? Alright enjoy the show..

Mini-Review: DW Griffith devised the base of film language only a few years earlier, and yet the storytelling here is not a whole lot less complex than that of today's most winding thrillers. This movie trusts its audience so much that it barely introduces its characters. It kind of just jumps right into things, but at 4 1/2 hours long finding the time for developing characters was not a real problem. Unfortunately its complexity results in too much dialogue for silent, and hence a barrage of title cards.
