Take Me Home

About This Movie

So, 'Take Me Home' from 1928 is one of those quirky films that blends comedy, drama, and a touch of romance. It revolves around Peggy Lane, a chorus girl, and David North, a country boy trying to make his mark in showbiz. The dynamic between David and the star, Delerys Devore, is interesting—her attempts to draw him into her world create a sort of tension that keeps things engaging. The pacing might feel a bit off by today's standards, but that’s part of its charm. The performances, particularly from the supporting cast, bring a certain energy that feels genuine. It’s a slice of the late '20s stage life that doesn’t shy away from the complexities of ambition and attraction in the entertainment industry.

This film is somewhat rare, not the most commonly found title from the late silent era. Its scarcity makes it a curiosity for collectors who appreciate the transitional period of cinema from silent to sound. The film's unique blend of stage life elements offers an intriguing glimpse into the era, making it a noteworthy topic of discussion among vintage film enthusiasts. If you come across it in a collector's catalog, it's worth investigating its availability.
