Florence Vidor DVD

World War I Films of the Silent Era

Lothar von Arnauld de la Perière, Sessue Hayakawa, Jack Holt, Florence Vidor, Mayme Kelso
This DVD is packed with incredible footage documenting the strife and horrors of World War One; and there is a feature film entitled The Secret Game starring Sessue Hayakawa, Charles Ogle and other marvelous actors. Some of this battle footage is definitely hard to take; therefore this is not geared toward sensitive people. In addition, the quality of the print varies from terrific to below par for several portions of "The Secret Game;" the wartime footage is in remarkably good shape considering it was filmed at or near the front and then rushed back to American theaters to tell the public what was going on--along with a side dish of propaganda, of course.

The Marriage Circle

Florence Vidor, Monte Blue, Marie Prevost, Creighton Hale, Adolphe Menjou
This is the second American film directed by Ernst Lubitsch, and after a very successful career in Germany, he continued his high standard of filmmaking in the USA where "The Marriage Circle" was a huge success. Unlike his German contemporaries such as Fritz Lang and Murnau, Lubitsch always demonstrated a special skill in comedies, as can be seen in the `Lubitsch in Berlin' series by Kino Video. But he also knew how to simply entertain, and perhaps "The Marriage Circle" is one of the best examples of this.

The Cecil B. Demille Classics Collection

Dustin Farnum, Monroe Salisbury, Elliott Dexter, Florence Vidor, Sylvia Ashton
This collection is one of my prides. I bought it a few months ago and I am slowly going through the films. These are remarkable films. I had no idea that CB's career went back so far. I prefer his silents now to almost all of his sound films. Each film at least worth a look; there are more than just a few masterpiece. Stands include Volga Boatman starring William Boyd, The Whispering Chorus with Raymond Hatton, Carmen and Joan the Woman with opera diva Geraldine Farrar. As much as I love Mary Pickford her two films with CB are arguably the weakest of the lot, and they are pretty good, especially the Little American; as are Gloria Swanson's CB films, but it is interesting to see her in comedies.
