Critiques (1)
A lovely romance portrayed by two great actors and one excellent director. There are some great shots, especially of the docks. The camera captures places and their atmosphere wonderfully, but overall, I can't help but feel the film isn't that groundbreaking in terms of filmmaking; rather, it's a solid piece of work that can still be enjoyed even after ninety years.
