The Hunchback Of Notre Dame (1911 Film)
''The Hunchback of Notre Dame'' was a 1911 French silent film directed by Albert Capellani and produced by Pathé Frères. It was released under the name ''Notre-Dame de Paris''. It starred Henry Krauss and Stacia Napierkowska. The film was based on the 1831 Victor Hugo novel of the same name. Considering the film's brief running time, critic Christopher Workman considered it "remarkably faithful to its source material" but it "contains no discernible humor, unlike most other horror films of the period, and thus represents a bellwether of sorts for the genre....(Henry Krauss as Quasimodo) "looks remarkably like Charles Ogle in (Thomas) Edison's 1910 ''Frankenstein''." Although the film vilified organized Christianity by portraying members of the clergy as "sadistic and duplicitous", it was theatrically released in the USA in December 1911, shortly before Christmas. Plot Esmeralda, a Romani girl, is the darling of the people around Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Three men are ro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''L'argent'' is a direct sequel to ''La curée'' (published in 1871), which details Saccard's first rise to wealth using underhanded methods.
