It wasn't until about 160 minutes in did the story finally grip me. Why did I stay for such a length when the film is already 273 minutes long? Because the filmmaking here is excellent, beginning to end. I can't imagine anyone who loves the art of the places cinema can take you not liking it. I was delighted to stay just to admire the craft, but the final hour truly repaid me with a heartbreaking finale.

completamente de acuerdo con kristin thompson, dividida entre su lastre narrativo perteneciente a lo peor de la literatura del XIX y sus audacias en el montaje que se proyectan hacia el futuro, la película padece una esquizofrenia aguda incurable, mortal. se entiende que el productor pathé la cortara a un cuarto de las desmesuradas pretensiones de gance con su versión de 8 horas

Thanks to MUBI for providing this beautifully and masterly crafted film from Abel Gance. This film consistently amazes and saddens the soul. His use of color and framing of each scene are incredible. Many memorable moments.

It's a very long and very sad story. Life story. But this story is not for me.
