Re: Pre-1930s Hall of Fame

Cool another one I voted high. Had the Kid at 4. Which means the next two are my 1 and 2, so I’m real happy.

The Unknown was my 8. I don’t know, it just didn’t work very well for me.

Re: Pre-1930s Hall of Fame

Neither of my noms have showed up yet, so I’m happy. One of them was a blind nom, but I actually had it higher!

Re: Pre-1930s Hall of Fame

I believe this was my #9. It was a tossup between that and Lucky Star for the bottom two spots.

Re: Pre-1930s Hall of Fame

Yeah, let's do a Part 2, if everyone wants to? Ed said he would, I would. I bet cricket and Siddon would too.

For this HoF I went with two blind noms that didn't do well. I didn't even like them...

We're doing a Part 2 of this right? I actually only have 17 movies I could put on my Countdown List so I kinda need one!

Sadie Thompson

I actually liked this more than I expected, but it was still kind of a drag. Although it wasn’t even very long, they should have cut down on the run time, the story didn’t feel like...

Re: Pre-1930s Hall of Fame

After watching it I'm so puzzled by your point of view that I can't even believe we watched the same movie. The "touchy" and "sexually aggressive" man you speak of came off to me as a really nice...

Faust

Not bad at all. I loved the technical aspects, like the really good special effects and wonderful dark and serene images. A lot of this films is just poetical, like the visuals are writing a...

Marianne

This one was another letdown. I just though the humor was really dated and they tried to add in sound elements (like the mediocre music) when they weren't necessary. Some of the dialogue...

Re: Pre-1930s Hall of Fame

I’m confused...I tried the link for Marianne and three minutes in I realized it’s in French. Is there a way to get English subtitles or something?

Lucky Star

Not a fan of this one. I think it could only really hold up well under the lens of historical analysis, since it is a silent film partially about World War I. Other than that, I think...
