Broken Ways. 1913. Directed by D. W. Griffith.

(2/11/00)

This was one of the most enjoyable early Griffith films I have seen. Blanche Sweet looked lovely and the story of a woman who leaves a villainous husband who mistreats her had both pathos and excitement. It was a fine moment when Henry B. Walthall and Blanche Sweet confront each other in the telegraph office after she has believed him dead.
