They made movies before 1990? WOW Final scene of Greed. 1924
EDIT: Filmed in Death Valley over weeks. Jean Hersholt (the dead man) nearly died.

When I think of that movie I generally mostly recall the sort of high society scenes and how vulgar some of them are.. but I'd almost forgotten the madness in the desert. I think it's obvious that John Huston was a fan.

I think it's obvious that John Huston was a fan. originally eight hours long. From what I've read, what was cut out was no great loss. Von Stroheim tried to film every word of the novel. You can't do that.

One of my favorites that nobody knows. The shadow of "Aurens" on the sand. He's becoming larger than life, more legend than man

Can I do another? Thanks!
The light and shadow (Einsentein was a master). The music (when you have Prokofiev doing the score, it has to be good), the battle. And the coming attraction of real life. Notice the helmets of the Teutonic Knights foot soldiers. Look familiar.
Sad to say, the Battle on the Ice was probably hooey. Alexander Nevsky did rout the Teutonic Knighs but they didn't fall through the ice.

It's one of my favorite films, never thought I'd get the chance to see it in the theater. It's filled with classic scenes, hard to pick just one.
