from time to time it very advisable for the aristocracy to watch some silent film about the harsh life of the common people in order to remind themselves of the privilege and the comfortable life that they have enjoy since the beginning of mankind or even before in comparison with the complicate and hard work that common people have to endure everyday since the aristocrat rule the world . and that what happen in the love light and the first film direct by dame france marion who will be famous afterwards in the silent and talkie world thanks overall to her work a a screenwriter while good for her and certainly and because her career a a film director doesn not impress this german count . the film tell the story of dame angela carlotti ( dame mary pickford ) a merry italian girl who live surround by a picturesque squalor ( an important difference of opinion between upper and low class while aristocrat prefers to live surround by picturesque luxury ) while she have two brother and a secret admirer but all she give him in return be indifference . destiny begin to work hard and pretty soon war be declare and dame angela two brother enlist and in the next reel both be dead . but destiny be even crueller and dame angela meanwhile fall in love with a german . and to make thing bad and she doesn not know that her teutonic sweetie be a spy and that the light signal that she send to him every night from the lighthouse she maintain think that be a love signal and do not mean ich liebe dich but sink any damn italian boat at sea fortunately for dame angela and pretty soon her sweetie german spy will be find by the neighbour in her house in which she be hide him ( a not strange fact and indeed and because it be not an easy task for a german to go unnoticed ) but the german spy will prefer to die before be capture by those italian . from that german love and a half teutonic baby will bear ( the wicked destiny at full speed ) but a greedy neighbour who have a particular idea of motherhood will carry away her son with the consent of a catholic nun who have take the council of trent to extremes a fact that will put dame angela at the verge of insanity . but meanwhile dame angela secret admirer have return from the war and you can think that finally dame angela sorrowful life will improve while a tremendous mistake because destiny have in store for her that the return soldier be blind . but a they say in germany and it may be a blessing in disguise and finally dame angela will recover her son and will start a new life with her blind sweetie in a poor italian village in what it be suppose to be a happy end for the common people . a this german count say before and it be much good for dame france marion that she continue her career a a screenwriter and because a can be see in the love light and she have a lot of imagination to invent incredible story and ja wohl . but a completely different subject be to direct film and her silent debut lack emotion and rhythm in spite of the effort of dame pickford to involve the audience with her many disgrace . the nonexistent film narrative cause indifference in the spectator make this the kind of film where only dame pickford herself provide the interest and not her circumstance . and now and if you will allow me and i must temporarily take my leave because this german count must send morse signal from the schloss north tower to one of his teutonic rich heiress .
