Remade for the sound era in two languages 1938, I'm glad to finally see the original 1928 silent version too. The print I saw actually had dubbed over dialogue instead of inter-titles and wasn't the best of quality. Actually I was disappointed overall by the film. The landscapes were great as they are in all these mountain movies, but the story wasn't catching on. It was a little bit the same with the 1938 films, but at least there the more natural dialogue covered over the slower spots.
