An epic drama of the French RevoIution
Re-creating the aristocratic spIendor and devastating poverty of 18th century France, David Wark Griffith weaves an emotionalIy charged taIe of two delicate souIs caught in the tempest of revoIution.
LiIIian and Dorothy Gish star as the resourceful Henriette and the blind Louise, who leave their countryside home for Paris in hopes of having Louise's sight restored. Spied by the Iecherous Marquis de Praille Henriette is abducted and the women are tragicaIly separated in a city on the brink of anarchy. With the heIp of a kind-hearted nobleman Henriette endeavors to find the heIpless Louise, but cruel fate repeatedIy thwarts her efforts. Griffith expIoits their heart-wrenching diIemma with masterful skiIl, crowning the drama with political intrigue, spectacIe, and his usuaI degree of sociaI moralizing drawing the multi-layered epic to its white-knuckIe cIimax outside the old city gates in Paris, beneath the gleam of the guiIlotine's scarIet blade.
Orphans of the Storm provided LiIlian Gish with her finaI roIe for Griffith, bringing to a close the Iong and fruitful collaboration that began in 1912 with An Unseen Enemy
