Three Word Brand – Wm. S. Hart western

Cowboy star William S. Hart stars in a dual role as two men from different sides of the law in this 1921 western. This new edition is sharper and clearer than what is available, and features a new musical score by renowned silent film accompanist Ben Model. The film has great locations, good cinematography and acting that is a bit more subtle than usually seen in silent Westerns, thanks to the craft of Hart collaborator, director Lambert Hillyer. Hart also plays his dual characters’ own father in the film’s prologue.THREE WORD BRAND (1921)cast: William S. Hart, Jane Novak, J. Gordon Russell, George C.
