The Folly of Revenge

1916 · 50 min Drama

Antonio Bordiga, a young sculptor, living in the Latin Quarter of New Orleans, is commissioned by William Baker, a rich, but degenerate, clubman, to carve a statue for him. Antonio is unable to secure a woman sufficiently beautiful in body and soul to pose for the statue and loses interest in his work. He is gazing out of his studio window one sunny afternoon when his attention is attracted to a young man forcibly kissing a girl. He rushes to her aid. She is so beautiful that he begs her to pose for him. She acquiesces.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The Folly of Revenge is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1916. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
