The Fall of the House
of Usher (1928)
Directed by James
Sibley Watson and Melville Webber this film based on the short story
of the same name stars Herbert Stern, Hildegarde Wilson and Melville
Webber. Strange things happen to a man and woman living in a large
house.
Without knowing the
plot of the story this film is based on before watching this film it
is pretty impossible to divine and plot or narrative here. There is
no dialogue or titles cards to suggest who people are or what is
happening which makes for a very confusing 13 minutes. Where the film
is strong is in the striking visuals that explore a range of strange
techniques.
2/5
