There She Goes

About This Movie

There She Goes, from 1913, is this delightful little comedy that captures a slice of life in a charmingly simple way. You’ve got your classic cowboy trying to win over his lady love, which is a timeless theme, right? The pacing is pretty breezy for its time, moving along without dragging, and I appreciate the practical effects, especially considering the era. The performances, while not as polished as modern standards, still manage to convey that earnestness that’s hard to replicate. It’s a neat glance at gender dynamics and familial approval in the early 20th century, making it a fascinating piece for any silent film enthusiast or collector to dig into.

This film is somewhat scarce in collector circles, with its history tracing back to the early days of cinema. Various prints exist, but original copies are particularly prized. It's an interesting piece for those who appreciate the evolution of comedy in film, and its themes of love and defiance resonate through the ages, making it a worthwhile exploration for silent film collectors.
