Well i couldn't really sit through it. It was just too boring and would've been better if it weren't a silent film. I don't know why you decided to go the silent film route maybe you wanted to be artsy or were trying something different but it didn't really work. I love silent films D.W. Griffith and George Melies were fantastic directors in their day. I liked that the camera was stationary because in silent films it barely moved. I also liked how the music sometimes went with what was going on in the scene. Now in retrospective this film just didn't do anything for me. I think it should've been shot in B&W rather than in color. I think you should've had fancy titles like the silent films of old used to have. I give you credit for attempting a dying art.
