This was an unexpectedly rich emotional journey characterized

This was an unexpectedly rich emotional journey characterized by a raw, often primal expressiveness that matched the untamed, awesome scale of its mountainous landscape. Its characters reject (and are rejected by) human society, and build a life for themselves in the wilderness where "[t]he only law for them was their love." When we are first presented with this idea it seems like nothing more than sweet sentiment. But as the film progresses we are forced to confront a deeper meaning: while we might be able to outrun the laws of man, breaking the laws of nature always has consequences. I was impressed by this story, challenged by its themes, and was left with an increased respect for Sjöström's direction, writing, and acting. His cinematography is always fabulous, but nothing yet in his filmography has compared with this. The snow-speckled peaks, mountain lake, and waterfalls are stunning, but the thrice-presented jagged cliffside starkly filmed against the otherwise unbroken sky is seared into my brain.

Great movie, just be prepared to speed read

Great movie, just be prepared to speed read the captions. Hard to believe that a silent film races through the captions.
