Having established himself as Sweden’s leading silent-era director, Victor Sjöström was beckoned to America, where he brought daring dramatic intensity, searing expressionistic visuals, and a profound feeling for landscape and the often overwhelming power of the natural world to the three landmarks of early Hollywood cinema gathered here. Built around indelible, startlingly modern performances from Lon Chaney (He Who Gets Slapped) and Lillian Gish (The Scarlet Letter, The Wind), these darkly atmospheric tales of madness, sexual repression, moral hypocrisy, self-annihilation, and human redemption share a vision of the world as ruled by chaos and struggle.
