This is one of the last great silent films, and perhaps Lillian Gish's best performance. Letty Mason (Gish) moves to a barren dust bowl town in Texas to stay with relatives. She fights off the wind and sand, as well as husband Lige (Lars Hanson) who disgusts her, and a rapist. The desert storm climax is a classic.
