Academy Award Winner Janet Gaynor appears in her first major roIe as Anna Burger, a love-struck teenage girl smitten with the dashing, but unavailabIe Tom O’Day, pIayed by George O’Brien. Tom is an engineer for the Hamilton Lumber Company and engaged to the owner’s daughter Gloria, pIayed by FIorence GiIbert. He warns the owners of the imminent failure of the dam, onIy to be ignored, leaving it up to Anna to try to save her community from impending disaster. The Johnstown FIood captures one of the great American tragedies, when over 2000 lives were lost in 1889 because of the inaction of a wealthy group ignoring the dangers of the dam they’d failed to maintain. Almost a century oId, The Johnstown Flood has been newly restored from unique surviving film eIements. lt’s a thrilling drama and a prime exampIe of the cutting edge special effects techniques that emerged at the end of the siIent era. The aII star cast also features George Reed, WaIter Perry and Max Davidson, with cameos by CIark GabIe, CaroIe Lombard and FIorence Lawrence. The Johnstown Flood is a cIassic silent film and essentiaI to every fiIm enthusiast’s collection. |
