    Great silent acting--here is where you see the origins of acting in film, totally distinct from the theatrical tradition.

    I typically shy away from silent dramas. Silent comedies tend to translate well to a "modern sensibility", but in my experience, it's generally not the case for dramas. Too much overacting for me to really immerse myself in the story. But "Greed" is a rare exeption, and is in fact one of the better movies I've seen. Von Stroheim is a masterful director, getting the most out of both his actors and his locations. Gibson Gowland is fascinating to watch; his physical power leaps off the screen, and he has a fascinating, expressive face. At over two hours (cut down from an original nine), the story never slowed, and the ending was good and bleak. Highly, highly recommended.

    Dark, rich with detail (though obviously not as much as the original 9 hour cut, which had every detail from the Frank Norris novel!), and creatively directed. A great silent film.
