Shadows is a 1922 silent drama film starring Lon Chaney. Directed by Tom Forman, the film follows Yen Sin, a humble Chinese immigrant who survives a shipwreck and settles in a deeply Christian fishing village. Despite his kindness, he is treated as an outcast due to his ethnicity and beliefs. As he observes the town’s hypocrisy, he ultimately plays a crucial role in exposing a blackmail scheme that threatens a young minister and his wife. With Chaney’s masterful performance, poignant themes, and atmospheric cinematography, this film remains a compelling exploration of prejudice and redemption.<br /><br />Credits: <br />Director: Tom Forman <br />Producer: B.P.
