It's only 30 seconds long, but that running through the wheat field might be the most purely romantic scene in all of cinema. The kind of gorgeous filmmaking that makes your heart soar.
Unfortunately the story would end sadly in real life cause the boy never gets the issue , i had a relationship like that and it never goes right anyway so film made me sad but despite it i liked first part.
I'm rather surprised that this wonderful film, though not quite as good as "Sunrise," isn't on about a dozen more lists.
Of course, there are lots of great films that are only on a few, if any, lists on this site, but since this one is from a widely acknowledged master and was made right on the heels of his masterpiece it seems it would place on more lists.

only on 2 lists. What a shame. Better than 90% of the big listed films out there. A masterpiece to be compared with Sunrise.mathiasa

F.W. Murnau movies are always so great.. I don´t know why this one isn´t in the Top 100 Silent Era Movies ListLocal Hero -- aka MestnyiGeroi
Beautiful. And the run through the wheat field was the visual acme for me, too -- dazzling!sapta
The happy end seemed too fast and a bit forced but still very good movie. The run through the wheat field is great.lampadatriste

Better than Sunrise. Very fresh.
