Review of Sadie Thompson (1928) by Joel A — 26 Apr 2013
A rip roaring sensual film about a pacific island prostitute's run in with a religious hypocrite and the tension between just rises & rises.
Roual Walsh played the genuine love interest of Sadie & was also the director of the film. It has beautiful camera work & gorgeous lighting. Gloria Swanson was sensational as Sadie Thompson she was charismatic & was capable of all the emotional depths she needed.
Quite a tragic film that's quite ground breaking for its time & it's quite compelling to watch.
