Featured review
It's black and white and silent. Twenty four year old dolores del rio. Warner baxter, vera lewis, roland drew. Senora moreno has taken ramona in, but has never shown her a mother's love. When the sheep shearers arrive, ramona falls for the young, rugged alessandro, and forgets all about her half brother felipe. When senora moreno finds out, she disowns ramona, and ramona runs off to marry alessandro. The next couple years are not easy for the young couple. It's a great restoration! Picture and sound quality are both amazing. And the story itself is mostly riveting. So much happiness, as well as tragedy and loss. No wonder they have remade this story over so many times. The author herself had died forty years earlier; helen jackson had died in 1885, from cancer at age 54. The trivia section tells us that the director carewe was chickasaw himself, which probably helped this film get the respect and funding that it deserved. Carewe died at 56, from heart issues.
