The Girl and Her Trust

There's actually some impressive technique here that holds up to modern viewing. It's very well made and even a bit suspenseful.

The Girl and Her Trust estreava há 110 anos nos EUA. Quem já viu The Lonedale Operator vai achar que esse é um remake do mesmo, é quase, mas esse aqui tem um sentido de ação muito mais intrínseco, é um grande exercício de tensão pura. Como usual em Griffith é um grande exercício de estilo num filme reacionário pra caralho. No YouTube ( https://youtu.be/Jfvc3CZpLH4 )

It's a remake of The Londedale Operator, but with a few twists. It doesn't set up the characters as well, since it focuses instead on the action. Luckily Griffith proves he has what it takes - the action is still pretty intense 100 years later.

Gotta give Griffith credit here, this is pretty ingeniously done and quite enjoyable.

Dull, silly melodrama. That hammer -> bullet thing is pretty clever, though

From what I recall, extremely boring.

One of the first scratches on crime genre. Some smart ideas while Griffith explores the mise-en-scenes.
