The Bridge of San Luis Rey

This has a low rating on imdb.com.  I don't think it's as bad as people are making it out to be.  True it was slow in the first half but then it built up.  It's about a bridge collapsing and five people's lives are taken.  Then it focuses on their lives until they crossed the bridge.  It's nice to see the silent film star Nazimova in a role.  She kind of plays a villain.  If you're a fan of hers I recommend this movie.  Lynn Bari plays her daughter.  She doesn't like Nazimova at all. After watching this movie I started reading the book which I admit is much better.
