An unreal nail-biter, unexpected and 100% impressive. The less you know about the plot, the better, because Behind the Door really can surprise. Among other things, the film intrigued me with great acting performances - those who expect the theatrical overacting that is a part of silent films will be disappointed. This is completely different.
