Thérèse Raquin (1928)

A silent adaptation of the novel by French writer Émile Zola. Thérèse Raquin was shot in a German studio and featured Gina Manes in her greatest part. Zola’s sombre bourgeois tragedy was brought vividly to life. The details of the Raquin home, the human tensions, the unspoken words, and the looming shadows created an unforgettable effect.
