I just found this one (though it's the Pearl White silent one I'm always hoping to see), and I don't know if it's been brought up here or not. It's full of things that you're supposed to either find entertaining or just roll with, but somehow I found it hard to do either - like African "savages" and sinister Orientals (even more of those than you'd expect), and the "Odious Comic Relief," an effete cowardly character named Dodge. He's entertaining enough, except that he isn't cowardly now and then but almost constantly. Evalyn Knapp is good as Pauline except for one thing that presumably wasn't even her decision - the idea that the heroine screams constantly in these kinds of stories has been exaggerated, but it's not a great exaggeration when it comes to THIS one (although plenty of the screams actually come from Dodge!). What do any of you think of it?
