Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Scam
Buyer beware before ordering this! If you're a fan of Lillian Gish, D.W. Griffith and great films in professional high quality, you're getting none of the above with this scam, this absolute sham. Instead, you get the 1934 version with Colleen Moore. Why the seller doesn't present it as such (even the horrible packaging doesn't) is beyond me... I hope this product gets dropped immediately.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Lame but better than Demi Moore
I am going to disagree with the previous reviewer. Humor is completely inappropriate for The Scarlet Letter. Hawthorne's novel exuded unremitting gloom. I have not seen the silent version for many years but feel it was superior to this one if memory serves. This 1934 entry has perfectly dreadful acting from nearly everyone. Colleen Moore was an actress who did not transition well to talkies. Her style of acting is all too similar to a silent movie performance. It is overly emotional. She does not deliver lines well either. I use this film version in my English classroom because it at least sticks to the main story line of the novel. Another reviewer on this site regrets the omission of the courtship scenes displayed in the silent version. No such scenes occur in the novel, which begins with Hester's punishment as does this film.


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Forgery!
This is NOT the 1926 Gish version as promoted on the DVD cover. Amazon would be advised to correct the 1926 label from their product title, as this is an inferior 1930s version. Buyer be warned!


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Wrong film
The film on the disc in the box is NOT as the box claims Victor Sjostrom's wonderful silent version of The Scarlet Letter, which I have seen, but the very poor sound version from the 1930s. I suggest that Amazon ceases to advertise it as the 1926 version.
