I know it's sacrilegious to say this about a D.W. Griffith film, but this is quite dull really

The first ever gangster film. Some of the acting is okay, but it very much feels like a movie made in 1912. Can't really recommend it except as an historical curiosity.

Has a very welcome subtlety in both acting and film making that is rarely seen for the time. Griffith does rely a bit too heavily on title cards in the first half of the movie, but he thankfully tones it way down for the second.

An intriguing introduction and an exhilarating climax unfortunately feel like bookends, buttressing an absolutely glacial second act.
