With a creaky plot whose broad outlines are almost identical to Hitchcock's own (rather laboured) THE RING, this still manages to be one of Hitchcock's best silents, with all 3 leads turning in terrific performances (especially the conflicted Keen and Ondra). Soapy, predictable plot points are hammered home for too long at times.

Hitchcock don't seem to be into this film as the direction is pretty bland. The story is even more so and feels way too long and got tedious after awhile. The acting was decent for the time period and the text gave us just enough explanation to work off of.

I enjoyed this more than "Blackmail" which came out the same year. This one is silent while the other is a talkie, but I actually enjoyed watching this one.

Just plain boring and painfully moralistic love-triangle drama. I didn't care for any of the three protagonists.

Hitchcock never really mastered the silent film like his contemporaries did, which is strange since so many of his finest movies are heavily "image-based." The Manxman was his last, and it's a mess, albeit an entertaining one, with some real pathos coming from Hitchcock's star-of the minute, Anny Ondra.

A silent Hitchcock that isn't a total snoozer. It isn't a suspense film in the traditional sense, but there is a great deal of it.
