The Enemy, Fred Niblo (US, 1927)
A Viennese girl is left alone when her husband is drafted into the ranks during the First World War. In order to take care of her baby and her grandfather, she is forced into prostitution.
A very poignant anti-war drama starring Lillian Gish, who, following the impressive evolution of her character, shows off a wide variety of interpretive records.
Agnes Christine Johnston—considered a virtuoso of dramatic comedy who wrote scripts for Borzage, Lubitsch and Cecil B. DeMille—adapts, together with Willis Goldbeck, Channing Pollock's play of the same name. The last reel of the film is missing and has had to be reconstructed with signs and stills.
Silent film with Catalan intertitles.
