The Red Lily (1924)
9/10
Sad love story...
9 January 2007
I absolutely loved this movie. It made me nearly cry a few times. I felt really torn and nervous during much of the film. I felt so bad for Enid's character much of the time. Ramon Novarro is excellent, he later when onto the 1925 version of Ben Hur. Also, it was nice to actually see a film of Enid's because I don't think many have survived and I had read about her previously so it was really exciting to see some work of hers! I loved how the night scenes were filmed in an orange-ish color. I've always wondered how they did that back before they had many special effects? I really I could find it on DVD because on TCM there are no commercials and I had to get up a few times during the movie. I'm really happy that it was restored and shown on TCM. I recommend it! If you see it on TCM, make sure to go to the bathroom before so you don't miss any of it!
