Set at the circus, Lon Chaney as Alonzo, a fake armless knife thrower (he uses his feet) falls in love with Joan Crawford, the bareback rider. This horror epic is the most outragious of Brownings silent movies: a must see.

Film: The Eagle (1925)

Valentino's penultimate film, key to understanding the death cult that swept the world following his death in 1926. Director Clarence Brown is comfortable handling Valentino's sensuality and the sets are awesome.
