Two differences between this Austrian version and the generally available American version are immediately obvious: they differ both in their length and in the language of the intertitles. The American version is only 1,883 metres long - at 18 frames per second a difference of some 7 minutes to the Austrian version with 2,045 metres. Whereas we originally presumed only a negligible difference, resulting from the varying length of the intertitles, a direct comparison has nevertheless shown that the Austrian version differs from the American version both in the montage and in the duration of individual scenes. Yet how could it happen that the later regional distribution of a canonical US silent film was longer than the "original version"?
The prevalent American version of Blind Husbands does not correspond to the version shown at the premiere of 1919. This little-known fact was already published by Richard Koszarski in 1983. The film was re-released by Universal Pictures in 1924, in a version that was 1,365 feet (416 metres) shorter. At 18 frames per second, this amounts to a time difference of 20 minutes! "Titles were altered, snippets of action removed and at least one major scene taken out entirely, where von Steuben and Margaret visit a small local chapel." (Koszarski)
From the present state of research we can assume that all the known American copies of the film derive from this shortened re-release version, a copy of which Universal donated to the Museum of Modern Art in 1941. According to Koszarski the original negative of the film was destroyed sometime between 1956 and 1961 and has therefore been irretrievably lost. This information casts an interesting light on the Austrian version, which can be dated to the period between the summer of 1921 and the winter of 1922. Furthermore, the copy is some 200 metres longer than the US version of 1924. If one follows the details given by Richard Koszarski and Arthur Lennig, this means that, as far as both its date and its length are concerned, the Austrian version lies almost exactly in the middle between the (lost) version shown at the premiere and the re-released one.A large part of the additional length of the film can be traced to cuts that were made to the 1924 version in almost every shot. Koszarski describes how the beginning and the end of scenes were trimmed, in order to "speed up" the film. However, more exciting was the discovery that the Austrian version contains shots that are missing in the American one - shots/countershots, intertitles - and furthermore shows differences in its montage (i.e. the placing of the individual shots within a sequence). All this indicates that Die Rache der Berge constitutes the oldest and most completely preserved material of the film.
Sandra Bullock 一张厌世脸，看的人真的好不爽，但是演的真心不错。最后有一个小反转吧。剧中人人都没有错，造化弄人，女主也真是委实可怜！
还行，各方面都不错，只是纳闷，美国5岁小孩误杀要负刑事责任？中国14岁以下故意杀人都没事啊。
还好警察的儿子没有开枪，不然这生活真的无法继续了，而且很有可能再也无法继续。仇恨与爱对立而在关键时刻，仇恨被化解。满屏苦情脸，结局透着光。桑德拉布洛克只能说尽力了。
博同情故事，秀情感大戏，女主整容后时代来临，有点变形的假面看起来肥肠难受
成功的翻拍，剧情推进略慢，但还都在点上，四星推荐。
桑德拉的演技撑起整部片 配乐都很赞 结局算一个美好的sign吧
看了一半多了，看不下去了，一眼看到头的剧情。演员演技没的说，是因为东城梦魇火了也想来一波吗，但是拍的真的太无聊了。豆瓣分太虚高了。
故事很简单。但女主演技太好了。看到最后情感共鸣催人泪下。
反转还是挺令人意外的，怒砸施工现场的Ruth是多么的憋屈啊！
故事很棒，编剧也很棒，节奏也不错，关键是女主长得有点像女版的MJ让我有点出戏，这个剧情推进太棒了
配乐和几个镜头语言很不错，比较喜欢。
这个故事处理出悬疑感可能也是一种无奈之举，但被遮蔽了的是那种隐藏其中的深刻冲突，觉得有点遗憾。Sandra Bullock可以准备等着提名了
9分 2021.12.19 桑德拉布洛克演的真是很稳 低沉 压抑 加上汉斯季默的配乐真的很绝配
铺垫的太厚实了，桑德拉的演技日臻完美炉火纯青，飞跃到人生的一个巅峰。竟有点科恩嫂的凌厉。正好把导演的细节演绎的恰到好处，最后那一个拥抱，参透了所有怀疑故事拖沓繁琐的误解，真情无憾，辗转人间……
生活碾压我们一次还嫌不够，还要持续性的，是嫌我们还不够苦逼吗？
不是我喜欢的类型片，但是能完整看完，也值一个三星了。
Everything in its right place 一出来的时候，我哭成狗。
看到桑德拉布洛克，真的是久违了！
法律是块冰铁，好人也受累。
沉稳又克制的表演 打碎了牙往肚子里咽 在最后还原真相的时候差点就哭出来。
