Synopsis: The film is a hypothetical account of the events preceding Thomas Harper Ince's mysterious death. It takes place on a yacht, where are several people linked to movies one way or another (actors, directors, columnists, a media mogul, etc.).
Appraisal: The script is efficient and well structured; the mise-en-scene is precise and competent. It is hard for me to decide whether I believe in this version or not, but the film is enjoyable either way. The fact that the world once stood this close to not having masterpieces such as "City Lights" sent a chill up my spine.
