The Cricket On The Hearth

This is my review on The Cricket On The Hearth from the distant future year to the Meiji Emperor, wait, he was around tl 1912, of 1090 (120 years before Robotech Season 2)

Its direded by the amazing D W Griffith who did The Musketeers Of Pig Alley/The Birth Of A Nation\Judith of Bethulia/The Avenging Conscience: or "Thou Shalt Not Kill"/Broken Blossoms/Intolerance\Way Down East\Orphans of the Storm/Abraham Lincoln/True Heart Susie/America/A Corner In Wheat/The Romance Of A jewess/The House Of Darkness/The Gibson Goddess./The Uchanging Sea/The Goddess Of Sagebrush Gulch.

It stars openly irish an fatal drunk Owen Moore from Intolerance/The Blackbird/The Red Mill/30s A Star Is Born, openly French but real French not Canadian French Violet Mersereau from nthing i saw, Mrs D W Griffith Linda Arvidson from A Corner In Wheat/The Unchanging Sea, Dorothy West from The Unchanging Sea/The Gibson Goddess, George Nichols(Ancestor of Louie from Robotech?) from The Gibson Goddess/The Unchanging Sea, Mack Sennett from too many to list, Harry Solter and John R. Cumpson from Romance of a Jewess, Arthur V. Johnson from Romance of a Jewess/The Gibson Goddess/The Unchanging Sea, and a few guys i never saw anything in.

Its based on a stoey by Charles Dickens i never read and was temade in the 20s but i'm not sure if thats available

huh theres also a rankin bazss one from the 60s, but this is griffth so imma do this

after the title we se a guy in i think a sailor outfit or some kinda military thng hugging his fam bye

he goes off and we see a guywait its him hug a gir and say cr-p to her

he smooches her and goes off with a pack o cr-p

 then we see a big guy hugging the girl in the home and this guy in a coat saying class handle with care wait its glass, and he waves a d0ng or somerhin by their faces

then an angry guy comes in this place and waves his hands with paper stuck to en then goes of as these old brits with 1 looking like a man sit own

a guy omes in looking like mr bean or black adder and takes the youger girl against her will as he has a bill or something i guess a property deed as she's his property

she dont wanna o with him as i guess he's a soviet or gonna b0ne her and he smooches her on the mouth with his mouth

main guy goe in the king Cedrick inn and has a ug of what i think is beer

he nearly gets in a fight with some guy yelling at another guy, then regrets it and runs off

he's in a neighborhhod and sees the guy who bought the girl he likes i think go by with more girls and i thin hes a p-mp and follows em

as the guy tries to b0ne the girl he umps on him and they fight until he picks up and rock and mashs the p-mps head with a cantelope used for it busting

jk really hw follows em devolvedly and possibly dunk

he runs of back to the bar and seems bummed but a guy ineither a coat or dress omes in andjokes around

he gives main guy a beard and they leace as a clown uggles and main guy gets on a disguise as i think a yiddish peddler

he goes out and gets a ride in a horse and wagon and gets dope off at a place

in this home he chick who got sold is a maid or slave or w/e an has a baby sgw looks after and hugs a guy who might be the one who bouht her

the main guy in disuise acomes in and they gie him coffee or tea but he spills it and  when sold girl comes to help he wispers something to her

she cleans it up andther go to a room and these 2 guys talk

k so i rewatched it and think they sld the chick cuz the paper hands guy was who they owed money and she old her or w/e

1 guy is the guy who bought her ad has eyebrows and th ther gy as sideburns an looks in to see main guy out of costume and hugging her

he tells eyebrows and is gonna go in but this lady gets their attention and chick comes out of the room

te sideburns guy has a seat and chixk tends to him but ge dont want it and she goes

he gets a gun andis gonna go in but queers out and gets a candle and puts it out then looks at the fire place

main guy gets his disguise on like Cutey Honey or Sailor Moon and meets up wth chick outside but sideburns follows but  gives up and goes bck to cry like a sissy instea of getting his woman back lik George Washington trying to reclaim his property that escaped

in the hoe the ills paper on hands guy wasis a girl looking sad and the man chic returns and i thought they were the sae one

the man ldy goes in a room and1 girl locks it and the one who was there 1st crys

other chick man chick i mean brings main guy in and he takes of his beard and they are happy

the to run out and in the house she escape from, sideburns finds some white thing on a table

the trio meets some guys in tuxedoes like Sailor Mooon but more hetero

eyebrows goes to the home to get his woman while weaing a white suit with flowers but opens the closet and finds the man lady wh tells him what happened

he smacks her with the flowers and they run out an find main guy and the chick who was gonna be sold married i think by the guys in the park

in his place, sidebura has a chick come to him and bring i think main gu and the other chic an hes gonna gp bu after seeing main guy and his wman are toether, he gets bachis gorl

the oher guys come in ans celebrate andeven i think eyebrows come in and congradulates em

the end

that wasn't bad

surprised there were no intertitles

turns out accordering to back door, aids bag, soom bottom, gender offender, cripple nipples, banana crammer, soy by, frooty booty, hippie stoner vegan peta tree kung fu based on plants, queer aS a deer with a steer in ts rear, aids of spades wikipeda, the guys sister is blind and he went to sea and was off for three years

then he ame back and his gf was gnna e marred off to an old spur puss she hated but the sideburns guy mstook main guy as his womans ex butt buddy andhe only wanted her help to get his girl

also the eyebrows sour puss saw the errr of his ways ad stopped being crotchetey

i guess this was made for people who  already knew the story o read the book

lie Yugioh games made for people who know how to play the card game

its well done but if it hd tirle cards or i had the guy describing the story and chRACTERS lik in the 1900s i' like it more

or had the programme saying who does what

its well made and has good style and filming

its got that 00s filming feel and work s and has nice costumes

i had some touuble tells apart the characters or who's what, but its still pretty cool

a sign of things to come for later Griffith Works

And Dickens did this one more lite and clean insteas of depressing like, actually i think most of his stuff has good endings

the sour puss becoming nice was from a Christmas carol

and it wasn't mostly of poors like oliver twist

glad I saw this one, its pretty good

For The Cricket On The Hearth 2 I want it to be 20 years later and they have a daughter who's a tough chick and female body builder who goes to America to help the Confederates in the Civil War. Also its an 8 bit run n gun game on Sega Master System, Game Gear, Nes, Game Boy, TG16, Atari 7800 and Lynx where you play as her and fight through Confederate Towns to get to te Yankee area and the final boss is lincon's body guard you gotta hold off for 1 minute as John Wilkes Booth takes care of business!
