Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Lon Chaney, the man of a thousand faces, was best known for playing Quasimodo and the Phantom of the Opera. But the former role was clearly the most ambitious of his illustrious career, full of such longing and anguish. It's as though his entire being was consumed by this ugly outcast with a heart as big and beautiful as Notre Dame itself. And the makeup is still astonishing. The rest of this unrequited love story is pretty effective as well, with the re-creation of medieval Paris a standout for its lavishness. Like all great silent films, it delivers a poetry of life that is abstract and tangible at the same time. --Bill Desowitz

It is an old silent black and white film from 1923. It has of course been enhanced for this edition that does not guarantee it is what it was. The image is amazingly clear and amazingly well centered and framed. Amazingly for 1923. The story is mythical and has been for nearly two centuries now. This version insists a lot more on the melodramatic than on the tragic. It centers too often on the spectacular and not on the deeply sentimental, sensual and psychological. It turns Quasimodo into a freak ... Read More

The picture quality on the disc is the best I've seen the film looking on any video or broadcast I've seen in the past (though it is an 80-plus year old silent film and this is never going to look like a Criterion Collection title). The extras are plentiful, fun (especially the 3-d stills) and informative. This is well worth shelling out the extra money for if you are a lover of silent film, classic horror, or if you're a Lon Chaney fan (the commentary is especially recommended if you fit in the ...

The acclaimed and renowned actor of the silent era - Lon Chaney - shows us why he was named "Man of thousand faces" . This performance may be not labelled but extraordinary and outstanding.
The first version of Victor Hugo's novel about the tortured hunchback who dwells within the sanctuary of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Ridiculed, exploited he is the freak of Paris, finds his bliss ringing louder the bells of the church to manifest his feelings. When she meets Esmeralda an alluring ... Read More

I had not seen The Hunchback of Notre Dame for some time prior to the purchase of this DVD. Despite its age the film is beautifully acted and the set decoration is magnificent. The music for this release is by Robert Israel who scored Harold Lloyd's silent films. The score is nicely conceived and well performed. The only reservation I have is that when Lon Chaney rings the large bell the sound is that of a tubular bell: higher pitched and not a deafening as the real bell would be. I was wondering ...

This new Ultimate Edition of the 1923 silent version of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" is a very nice set with various interesting bonus material such as a reproduction of the original theatre program booklet and other information generally aimed at the serious movie aficionado.
