Xue Zhong Gu Chu

At first I felt sorry for her as she was forced into a marriage to an ugly imbecile but as the movie went on I started to change my mind as she continually broke and ruined items in her saviors household.

The premise may be notionally more serious than White Rose (thus giving Wu Suxin occasion to show off a different set of emotions; again, you can see why she was such a star); but things still get fairly outlandish once her ordeals are underway, and provide excuse enough to end on a big ol' fight scene, as most of her pictures reportedly did.

A Chinese silent film which didn't know what it was supposed to be. The story is a tragic one of a girl forced into a arranged marriage where the pressure to satisfy her husband drives her to depression and suicide attempt. The weird part was that in all the serious drama the husband was acting like he was a total slapstick comic! Imagine a abusive Chinese guy with the Harold Lloyd glasses and behaving like the most grotesque silent comedian?! It was just strange. Didn't know to laugh or cry.
