@classicmoviebuff The Power of Love (1919) (https://www.stumfilm.dk/en/stumfilm/streaming/film/kaerlighedens-almagt) is the better film, but Danish only intertitles! 🧐 Nice direction and a lot of variety in tone! She's also more of a lead. 3/3 #SilentFilm #ClaraPontoppidan #Denmark #AWSandberg

@classicmoviebuff The Girl Behind the Counter (1911) (https://www.stumfilm.dk/en/stumfilm/streaming/film/ekspeditricen), a movie with questionable morals but with some snappy performances. Danish only but the English (and French and Russian and Portuguese ...!) translation is provided in the notes section (and for fun you can read the London English translation which changes the story to eliminate *gasp* premarital sex!) 2/3 #SilentFilm #ClaraPontoppidan #Denmark #AugustBlom

"In Summer of Fire and Blood, the first history of the German Peasants’ War in a generation, historian Lyndal Roper exposes the far-reaching ramifications of this rebellion. Though the war’s victors portrayed the uprising as naive and inchoate, Roper reveals a mass movement that sought to make good on the radical potential of the Protestant Reformation."

Yakov Protazanov's L'ANGOISSANTE AVENTURE (staring, among others, the exquisite Ivan Mosjoukine), is the first production by Russian émigrés in France, made while they were fleeing the Russian Revolution.
Thankfully it is now available for free via the Cinémathèque française, and therefore I implore you all to become better acquainted with Vanya:

Le Brasier ardent (1923) written, directed by and starring Ivan Mosjoukine. Certainly one of the most wonderfully charming films you will ever see.
The DVD is out of print, but you can rent it for 30 days via Flicker Alley https://vimeo.com/ondemand/33988/.

"Une dame m’a dit, un jour, que dans les scènes d’extérieurs les chevaux et les chiens sont les meilleurs acteurs: ils sont tout à fait “comme dans la vie”; eh bien, ce “comme dans la vie” est pour moi le plus terrible ennemi du cinéma."
