The movie wanna be a psychological thriller however it is really musical review wit a little of Erich Von Stroheim bellowing and showing his softer side through Otto the dummy.
The characters were one dimensional expect for Otto the Dummy. He was the best character in the film. He was cute, adorable, innocent and very likeable. Truth be told, he was the true star of the film.
I do recommend the film to anyone who is interested in watching an early talkie.
Hollywood is big on remarks and reboots lately and I wish the studios would remake this film. I would like the see a remake that focus on Gabbo's background. It would be nice to see all the characters given more depth and a better storyline.
