The Verdict
Lon Chaney, the man of a thousand faces, in one of his most successful performances, the deformed and unfortunate hunchback Quasimodo, who lives a life as a “ghost” hidden in the cathedral of Notre Dame.
Lon Chaney, the man of a thousand faces, in one of his most successful performances, the deformed and unfortunate hunchback Quasimodo, who lives a life as a “ghost” hidden in the cathedral of Notre Dame. One of the most expensive productions of 1920s cinema, with monumental sets (the cathedral of Notre Dame entirely rebuilt in the studios) and cutting-edge means for the period, to the point that everything was “reused” for the 1939 version of “Notre Dame.” Certainly the most horrific (and for this reason the only one to appear reviewed on the site) and successful among the cinematic adaptations of the story of the hunchback Quasimodo.
