If you loved Pauvre amour, try Le Lys brisé
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by D.W. Griffith, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Pauvre amour, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Le Lys brisé is
D.W. Griffith's melodramas can be a bit much, it's true. Here, a young girl is terrorized by her abusive pugilist father, then finds a tender, platonic friendship with a visiting missionary from China's Tong district. It's a bit of a bummer, even for a silent film.
