Rather than accepting an offer to be the mistress of a married man (Montagu Love), Gish agrees to marry an uncouth but earnest cowboy (Lars Hanson), who is distressed to learn that his new wife doesn&#8217;t love him; meanwhile, Gish&#8217;s mental stability becomes increasingly volatile, especially when Love re-enters her life.\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p>\n<strong>Genres, Themes, Actors, and Directors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Feminism and Women&#8217;s Issues<\/li>\n<li>Historical Drama<\/li>\n<li>Jealousy<\/li>\n<li>Lillian Gish Films<\/li>\n<li>Marital Problems<\/li>\n<li>Mental Breakdown<\/li>\n<li>Silent Films<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Review: <\/strong><br \/>\nPeary doesn&#8217;t review Victor Sjostrom&#8217;s final American silent film in his <em>GFTFF<\/em>, but he discusses it extensively in his <em>Alternate Oscars<\/em> book, where he not only gives Lillian Gish the &#8220;Best Actress&#8221; award, but names the film itself &#8220;Best Movie of the Year&#8221;. Sjostrom, screenwriter Frances Marion, Gish, and Hanson had previously worked together on a successful cinematic adaptation of <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=18199\"><em>The Scarlet Letter<\/em> (1926)<\/a>; they collaborated again for this film (based on <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Wind_%28novel%29\">a novel by Dorothy Scarborough<\/a>), which afforded Gish another opportunity to perform in an &#8220;ahead-of-its-time feminist drama about a woman without money or opportunities who tries to survive in a man&#8217;s world&#8221;. (Interestingly, Gish isn&#8217;t the film&#8217;s only female protagonist in such a position; though we may dislike Cumming&#8217;s character for &#8220;her cold treatment of Gish&#8221;, we understand that despite being a &#8220;bitter woman she is no villain&#8221;, given that &#8220;she dearly loves her husband and without him, in this harsh world, she has no life, no options&#8221;.) <\/p>\n<p>Peary accurately notes that &#8220;<em>The Wind<\/em> is beautifully acted by Gish and the talented, handsome Hanson&#8221;, whose portrayal here in a tricky role possesses a surprising amount of subtlety and emotional nuance. Gish, of course, can&#8217;t be equalled: as Peary notes, she&#8217;s &#8220;dynamic in a role that lets her run the gamut of emotions&#8221;, and &#8220;well aware&#8230; it is through her incredible eyes that we perceive the changes her character goes through&#8221;; he argues it&#8217;s likely that &#8220;no one was more aware of the camera than this shrewd actress&#8221;. Meanwhile, the film itself is &#8220;exquisitely photographed (by John Arnold), with much emphasis on motion&#8221;, and Sjostrom creating a &#8220;tremendous sense of claustrophobia with repeated shots of the sand swirling towards windows and penetrating everything&#8221;. (To that end, one can&#8217;t help wondering what area of Texas actually has sandy wind storms that are <em>this<\/em> insistent and <em>this<\/em> devastating; would people really choose to live in such a place, given any other option?)<\/p>\n<p><em>The Wind<\/em> (like all of Sjostrom&#8217;s work) is filled with many memorable, psychologically complex images &#8212; not just Gish&#8217;s &#8220;fantasized image of a white horse charging through the skies&#8221;, but her very breakdown itself, represented with increasingly expressionistic flair as the elements around her (the incessant sand storms, lecherous Love&#8217;s creepy return) eventually destroy every bit of resistance she possesses. Without saying more about the film&#8217;s controversial denouement (changed at the insistence of the producers), I will note that the ending manages to satisfy on multiple levels: Gish&#8217;s ultimate fate (while perhaps &#8220;a little hokey&#8221;) is the only one we would have wished for this most put-upon of feminist heroines. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lillian Gish as Letty<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Gish.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Gish.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Gish.png 576w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Gish-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Gish-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Lars Hanson as Lige<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Hanson.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Hanson.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24437\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Hanson.png 576w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Hanson-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Hanson-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Dorothy Cumming as Cora<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Cumming.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Cumming.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Cumming.png 576w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Cumming-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Cumming-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Many powerful, memorable images<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery4.png 576w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery4-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery4-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery.png 576w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery2.png 576w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery2-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Wind-Imagery2-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes, for Gish&#8217;s knock-out performance, and as a provocative silent melodrama by a master director.
