Review of He Who Gets Slapped (1924) by Andrey B — 03 Jun 2018
A very, very sad story, shot in the same vein, emphasizing the evil traits of human nature and its weaknesses towards the misery of the other. The film is backed with the strong Lon Chaney performance who was a true character actor of the silent period.
The movie itself is, perhaps, the lesser Sjostrom, comparing to his other features, but still the hand of the master is all too familiar in the handling of morbid and heavy things.
