Summary
Long treated with indifference by critics and historians , British silent cinema has only recently undergone the reevaluation it has long deserved. A cottage on Dartmoor is perhaps the most significant rediscovery. A tense, shocking thriller that stylistically evokes the early films of Alfred Hitchcock and the masterworks of Russian and German silent cinema. This film also contains Silent Britain, a new feature-length documentary that celebrates this newly-rescued golden age of British filmmaking.
