...it's well recommend!
ReplyDeleteIt has held up well.
DeleteThis is a new one to me (of course many many movies are). That's a pretty good % on Rotten Tomatoes too. Happy Saturday Nita.
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of it.
DeleteBookmarked for after shoveling
ReplyDeleteI've never had to shovel. We are getting freezing rain.
DeleteThanks for sharing! Valerie
ReplyDeleteSo many movies!
DeleteI like silent movies. This one sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteFYI: Movie: The Big Clock (1948) very good, and "No Way Out" actually copied a lot of the plot from it.
It has a modern feel to parts of it.
DeleteThe Big Clock has a great cast! I'll look for it, thanks. Looks like No Way Out is free on Pluto. I'll add it to my bookmarks. Thanks!
Those are some impressive ratings. I've just never been able to get into silent films, but been quite I while since I've tried.
ReplyDeleteSo many movies... There's no need to watch something that doesn't appeal :)
DeleteIf I have a spare two hours tonight I will watch it. It has impressive reviews.
ReplyDeleteI found it worth the time.
DeleteI've always been curious about Louise Brooks. Thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteShe was so pretty, wasn't she. She lived an interesting life and didn't die 'til 1985, though her last film was in 1938.
