Plot: The biracial daughter of a voodoo priestess returns home to exact revenge on a plantation owner.

Review: This film is a glimpse into the true evil of 1930s American racism and the manner in which Hollywood kept it alive. It is irredeemable, with every inch of it having been infected by antiblackness.

Year: 1934 Genre: Occult Country: United States Language: English Runtime: 1 hour 2 minutes

Director: Marshall Neilan Writer: Marshall Neilan Cinematographer: Mack Stengler Editors: Joseph Josephson, Helene Turner Composer: George Henninger Cast: Olive Borden, Reed Howes, Molly O'Day, Philip Ober, Georgette Harvey

------

Story: 0/5 - Though it is boring and barely coherent, its biggest sin is that it came from a place of pure hatred. It was clearly designed to reinforce the evil idea that white plantation owners were noble heroes and black people were lazy, stupid, evil predators.

Performances: 1.5/5 - Some performances are fine but generic, some are bad, and some are so offensive it's hard to watch.

Cinematography: 2.5/5 - Almost entirely composed of boring medium and long shots.

Editing: 1.5/5 - Stilted and often abrupt.

Music: 2/5 - Generic.

Sets: 2.5/5 - It's all very cheap but some are sufficient enough.

Costumes, Hair, & Make-Up: 2/5 - Unmemorable costumes that don't change.

-----

Trigger Warnings:

The entire story is propaganda designed to reinforce the idea that black people are dangerous and stupid, Voodoo is murderous devil worship, white southerners are pure heroes, and ending slavery was bad

A biracial lead character and a black character are both played by white actors--there isn't blackface make-up, but they are still performing blackface

Mild violence

Attempted rape (not graphic)

Real animal cruelty and murder (a snake is bludgeoned to death, an alligator is wrestled)

SCENE-STEALIN’ SATURDAY

[kronika-ilustrowana]

Почти для каждой кинозвезды контракт — это черное пятно, ведь он включает множество, порой очень строгих требований. Лиллиане Гиш, вопло��ению девичьего очарования,  по контракту запрещено… выходить замуж. Если она нарушит этот пункт, ей придется заплатить компании штраф в пять миллионов долларов. Сложно представить, как будет гордиться тот, кому удастся повести ее к алтарю. Молли О’Дэй и Мэй Мюррей запрещено полнеть. В контрактах указана верхняя граница веса, которую им нельзя пересекать. Медная Мэй жаловалась однажды одному журналисту, что ей приходится отказываться от шоколада и пить уксус.
