Fast-forward (Reply to this comment)
by travelace
Dave, I enjoyed your analysis except I bet you fast forwarded through much of the film. No where in the movie did Sanderson betray the secret of the "Fallen Woman" as you stated in your review. It was the town gossiper who revealed the secret to the Squire. The gossiper learned about this secret at her sewing circle from the madam who boarded Anna and her baby. Later in the movie we find the Squire visiting the boarding house to get to the bottom of the truth. Then right before the movie's finale, Anna accuses Sanderson at the dinner party as the man who deflowered her to the shock of everyone present and then runs off into the storm.
I know the movie was tiresome during some parts but if you're going to write a review, pay attention!

Cutting out the fat... (Reply to this comment)

Grouch,
If you want to see that sequence again without the "fat," try THE GREAT CHASE. It has the whole thing in its entirety.

Your efforts to keep old masters like Griffith .... (Reply to this comment)

... in the forefront of our consciousness is to be lauded. I was never a student of film, so my exposure to Griffith is limited to the remarkable "Birth of a Nation."
Thanks for your efforts, Dave.
cheers,

Always a Pleasure . . . (Reply to this comment)

. . . to read your reviews. Even after all this time, D.W. Griffith's genius is obvious and compelling--and sometimes a bit frightening. Changes in technology notwithstanding, his work demonstrates that great cinematography is more than mere special effects.
Thanks again,
DAnneC
