La signora delle camelie (1915)

English Titles: Camille; The Lady of the Camellias.
Synopsis: A young man falls in love with a Paris courtesan, and is retributed. But external factors will pose obstacles to their relationship.
Appraisal: Lacklustre version of Dumas fils's novel. It manages to convey the story with images and a few intertitles, but after a while it gets monotonous; maybe the sequences should be shorter, more concise.
