Considerada la mejor película de la época muda de John Ford, un western alrededor del ferrocarril y el espíritu pionero de los Estados Unidos de América. (20th Century Studios H. E.)
Reseñas (1)
Traditional American pathos in the embryonic stage, which somehow inadvertently evokes the sincere amusement and enthusiasm that German films of the era possess with their period rigidity, tension and naivety. Unlike the ideologically and visually brilliant and sophisticated German film, The Iron Horse instead amazes with some technical innovations and also with the fact that it essentially predefines the later form of westerns. You can only watch this film with a slight smile on your face, because the shallow mix of melodrama and the celebration of the work of railway workers is truly purely period-like. Nevertheless (or precisely because of that), this is a wonderful example of silent craft and a film in the true sense of the word canonical.
