Review of Romance of the Western Chamber (1927) by Joel A — 09 May 2017

Any Silent Film that has survived from China is a rare treat & although this isn't the most amazing film it does have something to offer.

The story of young Chinese man who while studying at the royal temple is thrown into the middle of war between two Chinese tribes, but his goal is to have the Princess' Hand.

The film is interesting for the large amount of close up's & focus on actors facial expressions. A fast paced film that packs a lot in 46 minutes.
