The Penalty (1920)

My rating: 6/10

I mean, it's over a hundred years old, so obviously not everything holds up, but Chaney's performance is great, and it's a pretty solid thriller throughout.

Nossa Senhora de Paris

EUA, 1923

Wallace Worsley

7/10

Vitalidade

Apesar da pouca fidelidade ao romance de Victor Hugo, esta é a primeira grande produção que adapta a imortal história de Esmeralda e Quasimodo ao cinema.

Antes dela já tinham sido realizadas quatro adaptações, três curtas metragens, pouco ambiciosas, e um filme romântico, The Darling of Paris, de 60 minutos, realizada por J. Gordon Edwards, com Theda Bara e Glen White, atualmente perdido, muito vagamente inspirado no original de Hugo.

Há críticas inevitáveis, como o final nada conforme o original, o desdobramento do vilão Frollo em dois personagens, um bom e um mau (seria demais para a América dos anos 20 aceitar um sacerdote lascivo?) ou a perfeita inutilidade do reencontro de Esmeralda com a mãe perdida. Mas também há virtudes. Lon Chaney faz um Quasimodo memorável, a quantidade de figurantes faz lembrar as produções megalómanas de Griffith ou DeMille, os cenários e a reconstituição da velha Paris do século XV, estão bem conseguidos, para a época.

Em suma, é um filme que ainda se vê com prazer, um século mais tarde, e essa é a maior prova da sua vitalidade.

Vitality

Despite the lack of fidelity to Victor Hugo's novel, this is the first major production that adapts the immortal story of Esmeralda and Quasimodo to cinema.

Before it, four adaptations had already been made, three short films, unambitious, and a romantic film, The Darling of Paris, 60 minutes, directed by J. Gordon Edwards, with Theda Bara and Glen White, currently lost, very loosely inspired by Hugo's original.

There are inevitable criticisms, such as the ending that doesn't conform to the original, the splitting of the villain Frollo into two characters, one good and one bad (would it be too much for 1920s America to accept a lascivious priest?) or the perfect uselessness of Esmeralda's reunion with her lost mother.

But there are also virtues. Lon Chaney makes a memorable Quasimodo, the number of extras is reminiscent of the megalomaniac productions of Griffith or DeMille, the sets and the reconstitution of the old Paris of the 15th century, are well achieved, for the time.

In short, it is a film that is still enjoable to see, a century later, and that is the greatest proof of its vitality.
