"Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?" -- Harry Warner, of Warner Bros. (1926) Be Silent, My Sorrow, Be Silent (Молчи, грусть, молчи) Apparently, an attempt to address class conflict in the standard weepy melodramatic format (complete with violin). While the fragments that remain do not provide a convincing critique (compare with Child of the Big City (1914)), it's still more substantial than other surviving works by this director.
