No Rules in 'Fair Play'
Rules are nowhere to be seen in the harsh unfiltered reality of ‘Fair Play.’
King Rene’s Daughter (1913)
This elaborate and well-staged silent version of Hertz' play is exceedingly well produced for 1913: it starts off by introducing the actors by name and role, then showing them in double exposure in street clothes and in costumes. The production values are also elaborate and the look of the set designs reminds one of the elaborate backdrops that Melies used in his shots.
