fresh:
Hitch's most overtly Hitchcockian silent film ...

fresh:
Not a great film, but a remarkable one, with Hitchcock at his most 'innovative.'

rotten:
The picture has a very, very excellent begining, a mediocre middle and a most deplorable ending. A minor fault is that its running time is about fifteen minutes too long.
