Did you know Edit. Trivia Following the successful telecasts of Othello and The Eagle , New York City's WJZ Channel 7 , began a weekly series of Sunday evening silent film feature presentations, shown more or less in their entirety, which aired intermittently for the next twelve months.
This feature was initially broadcast Sunday 9 January , and, like the rest of the series, aired simultaneously on sister stations WFIL Channel 6 Philadelphia and freshly launched WAAM Channel 13 Baltimore , an innovation at the time; this would be the final entry in this particular series, but WJZ would continue to occasionally telecast silent film features for the remainder of the year.
Their next television premiere would be the often requested The Son of the Sheik Tuesday 25 January While Love and Schildkraut are perfectly delightful in the early, sillier scenes, neither one seems particularly comfortable with the love-through-the-tears stuff.
Rudolph Schildkraut, meanwhile, does his share of scene stealing, especially near the climax of the picture when he is forced to flee the castle but manages to make off with nearly every valuable furnishing that is not nailed down. According to Edward Sloman, who directed Schildkraut in His People , the veteran actor was a dream to work with and needed only the slightest instruction to either tone down or broaden his performance. Schildkraut plays it broadly here but the story really calls for it and it works very well.
In general, Young April is a delightful trifle. Like most of the films Cecil B. DeMille produced under his own banner, Young April boasted a hefty budget that the box office could simply not support. Ruritanian romances have pretty much died out as grown-up entertainment these days and a major reason is that they simply do not reflect the modern world. The number of hereditary monarchs with real as opposed to symbolic power dropped enormously after the First World War and has only decreased since then, with the Second World War being the final nail in many a royal coffin.
However, before the genre died out, there was a last flurry of activity and it seemed that every performer worth their salt had to star in one of these pictures. That being said, the film did enjoy one major advantage due to the time in which it was produced. Whether by accident or design, the writers of Young April seemed to understand that the world of kings and grand duchesses was slipping away.
Without giving too much away, the film ends with a sort of reverse revolution in which the royalty declare their independence. There are some loose threads left hanging but they get points for originality. Young April is not a perfect film but it is a fresh take on a genre that was already decaying in The story is also helped along by the natural chemistry and humor of Rudolph and Joseph Schildkraut.
There is also a budget version released by Alpha that I have not seen but would caution against buying as Alpha releases tend to have cobbled-together scores and missing scenes and title cards. Sounds like cute fluff to me, plus I just love Joseph Schildkraut. I could never get through much of Orphans of the Storm, but I did like him in it. Skip to content.
