Review – L’Inferno

Billed as “Italy’s first feature-length movie,” this silent production of the first third of The Divine Comedy turns out to be quite entertaining. Though the quality of the print varies from scene to scene, the integrity of the overall production remains remarkably intact. Some of the images are so bizarre that they stand up even a century later. The disc includes a soundtrack by Tangerine Dream, which turns out to be not too terribly intrusive (and if it bugs you, you can always mute it). Worth seeing
