The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Valentino, and criticism

Cinema Umberto, Bari . The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (Metro). I say it now: a great Movie! Great in terms of technical and artistic. If the movie as critics have ruled competent Naples, tends to a political propaganda for a nation, this is not the least impressed the audience of Bari, which is not at all gone into a frenzy for this, or that patriotic scene, but rather follow the unfolding of the drama, just watching the players and the events of the drama, at times uttering exclamations of irony, to some exaggerated scenes of the orgy of German troops. Just as the time of Nero! Most admired throughout the unfolding of the drama, the art of the two excellent main characters. Rudolph Valentino, Italian, and most of Puglia, southern brown with that nice guy, gives life to the character he most admirably flesh, Alice Terry assisted by dignity, a true gem of beauty overseas. Replies Number and huge audience.

Modernissimo, Florence . The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (Metro). As I wrote at the beginning of my short film reviews, the success of this work was really indescribable, when you think of successfully holding the bill for over a month and almost always sold out with salt.

Excelsior Cinema, Palermo . The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse , the Metro, a film is justifiably exalted from advertising. The first and second parts are not of great importance, the other four elevators work at a height, rarely achieved until now.
admirable movement of the masses, the constant and precise synchronization between the assembly and details, talented artists, all well together for the sole purpose of a balanced and tend to emphasize the role entrusted to them, great pictures, the beautiful interweaving , nice, clear and moral symbolism, which emphasizes the cruelty of war.
our enthusiasm is not unwarranted. In the presence of such films feel obliged to remind those who work among us, to study and observe, and shouting agl'inattivi: Shame!

Film Bios Bologna . The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse . The film has come to us after the resounding triumphs reported in other Italian cities and abroad, and then was expected, almost morbidly. He held a sign for fifteen days continuously and drew immense crowd.
Speaking of the work is unnecessary, after which courses are rivers of ink on the film, the protagonists, etc. used on the masses. I will only say that here too there has been a remarkable success, but that many were expecting a more comprehensive and more responsive to the instrument, to be honest, you need a booster.
I am convinced that the work loses much of its value in the Italian edition. The titles of the paintings are badly translated, and even technically unappealing. In some ways then the film has too obviously incomplete and incomprehensible for not being mutilated to somewhere interesting. However, this does not hurt that I'm in the complex vastness of the work, attention to detail and plays with rare skill.
Rudolph Valentino is imposed for serious, fair and nice acting, the other very well.

Oriental Cinema, Modena . The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse , the well-known production of the Metro. Talking about this movie and describe the wonderful impression given is how to repeat for the millionth time the praises of past critics. I will only say that this cinematic gem you had to present with all that optical and mechanical precision that he deserved.
E 'inexcusable misconduct by the management of the hall, in neglecting not only the framed panel proeizione, but also the operations of the cabin.
little light, even in low light so that it becomes difficult to read the wonderful captions. Despite this drawback, which we hope will soon be eliminated, the public has found true and intimate moments of emotion, especially in the love scenes of Valentino and the fascinating Terry; those of trench warfare and the time of the departing troops, where he able to vent its unanimous favor with warm applause.
