Unfortunately the sound and the colour weren't working properly at the cinema I was at... lol

A beautiful movie, but so much more could have been done with the style. In the end it kind of just ends up as a romantic comedy without speaking or sound effects

An incredibly charming movie. I was worried that I wouldn't be grabbed by a silent movie, but it was engaging and artfully done. Not only a movie to see, but one to add to your own collection.

Absolutely amazing work. Deserves every single award it has one. Compelling story, fantastic actors and a special something that you don't see in many films these days: Art. The way the film has been produced is more than just a nostalgic testament to a by-gone era, it is a celebration of the most pleasing of all art forms: the screen.

I am fourteen years of age. I am into film effects and techniques I love filming for hobbies!! Iv'e watched the silent films by Alfred Hitchcock and I have to say "I am a huge fan of silent film technique" I hope the artist makes silent films come back. In a way silent films play with your mind and make you think. It was a brilliant movie and well worth seeing! everything from cinematography to visual effects and wonderful orchestra illustrated scores. See it it's wonderful and captivating.
