Beware of what release you watch
7 July 2020
I settled down to watch this only to be met with the most godawful soundtrack I've ever heard accompanying a silent movie, some idiot thought that putting modern singers caterwauling along a 95 year old movie would be a good idea - it isn't as it makes it near unwatchable, turning the sound off may have helped, but, watching a movie with absolutely no sound isn't the way to do it. This makes the dreadful accompanying soundtrack to Sherlock Jr seem like perfection (although real perfection is getting hold of Sherlock jr scored by the divine Sir Carl Davis)

Horrible, horrible, horrible.
