- “Why are we taught to be ashamed of love?”

As Poisonthewell already hinted in his commentary, Lillian Gish shines in this moving tragedy about a young woman who is pilloried by religious moralists (I've always hated those kinds of people). nailed.

Although the ravages of time have left clear traces here and there, it is still a watchable and entertaining film by Victor Sjöström.
