Review of Mother

Mother (1925)
One of most beautiful silent films ever made. [spoilers]
9 April 2003
Warning: Spoilers
This was almost a lost film completely, but was glad to catch it on CINEMA EUROPE: THE OTHER HOLLYWOOD to know that it is still obtainable. The story is told trhough the eyes of a young boy whose mother has died. Later on, his father remarries and the boy hated his new step family. At the film's climax, the boy attempts suicide and is saved by his stepmother bringing them close together. This was wonderfully photographed and edited. You can't watch this little film without feeling a weight on your heart.
