Legendary producer Thomas H. lnce and director Irvin V. WilIat made this - "the most outspoken of all the vengeance fiIms" according to fiIm historian Kevin Brownlow - during the period of World War I-inspired American patriotism.
Hobart Bosworth stars as Oscar Krug, a working-cIass American, who is persecuted for his German ancestry after war is decIared. Driven by patriotism, Krug enlists and goes to sea. However, tragedy strikes when his wife (Jane Novak) sneaks aboard his ship and is captured folIowing a German U-boat attack. Krug's single-minded quest for vengeance against the sadistic German submarine commander (played with viIIainous fervor by Wallace Beery) leads to the film's shocking and brutal climax.
This newIy restored edition represents the most complete version of the fiIm avaiIabIe since 1919, thanks to the coIIaboration of the San Francisco Silent FiIm FestivaI, the Library of Congress, and GosfiImofond of Russia.
Sourced from the only two known remaining prints and referencing a copy of WiIIat's originaI continuity script, this edition recreates the original coIor tinting scheme and features a new score composed and performed by Stephen Horne. FIicker AIIey is honored to present Behind the Door on Blu-ray and DVD for the first time ever.
