It is like a picture poem, with its sunshine and happiness in the beginning and its stormy drama in the end.

As with so many other great films, this one carries its own burden of real life sorrow.

The exquisite tragic ending -- conceived musically and rhythmically as a gradually decelerating diminuendo -- is one of the pinnacles of silent cinema.
