I thought The Dying Swan was very interesting because it seemed like the kind of movie that could easily be used in a movie in the current era. I especially enjoyed the end when he kills her in order to paint a real image of death. That was an interesting way to end the movie. My favorite part about 1002 was the relationship between the husband and wife. I found that to be very entertaining. The husband wife relationship is something that many people would understand and find humorous. I had a little trouble understanding the first movie. But I feel like someone coming from a poorer family wouldn't be as snobby if she moved up social classes like that. Going into today I thought it would be difficult to follow silent films, but it wasn't as difficult once I got used to it.
