  • St. Elmo is a 1914 American silent drama film produced by the Balboa Amusement Producing Company and distributed by William Fox's Box Office Attractions Company. It was the first feature-length film adaptation of Augusta Jane Evans's 1866 novel of the same name. The story follows the life of the title character (played by William Jossey), who kills his cousin (Francis McDonald) over the love of Agnes (Madeline Pardee), falls from grace, and eventually finds redemption and love with Edna (Gypsy Abbott). It is disputed who directed the film; many sources credit Bertram Bracken, while others list St. Elmo as J. Gordon Edwards's directorial debut. Some reviewers praised the scenery and overall production quality, considering the film an improvement over staged adaptations of the novel. Others found the scenery irrelevant and the story confusing. Despite mixed reviews, the film was financially successful, reportedly setting box office records. The following year, a film adaptation of an unrelated Evans novel, Beulah, was marketed as a sequel. As with most Balboa films, St. Elmo is now believed lost. (en)
  • St. Elmo è un film muto del 1914 diretto da J. Gordon Edwards. Prodotto dalla Balboa Amusement Producing Company e distribuito dalla Box Office Attractions Company, il film - girato a Long Beach in California - uscì nelle sale nell'agosto del 1914. Il film è un remake di un precedente St. Elmo girato nel 1910 con Maurice Costello e Florence Turner. Ne verrà tratto un rifacimento nel 1923 dallo stesso titolo con John Gilbert e Barbara La Marr.

  • 《圣埃尔默》(英語:St. Elmo)是一部1914年的美国无声剧情片,由巴尔博亚娱乐制片公司制作,威廉·福克斯创办的票房景点公司发行,是根据奥古斯塔·简·埃文斯同名小说改编的第一部电影长片。电影剧情围绕同名男主角(威廉·乔西饰)展开,他为心爱的女子(马德琳·帕迪饰)杀死了堂兄(弗朗西斯·麦克唐纳饰)后四处流浪,最终找到了救赎,并与另一女子(吉普赛·雅培饰)相爱。电影的导演人选存在争议,多份来源认为这是伯特伦·布莱肯的作品,但也有部分来源认为本片是J·戈登·爱德华兹的导演处女作。 部分评论家称赞片中的风景和总体制作品质,认为本片与原著小说的舞台改编作品相比有所进步。但也有评论员批评片中风景对剧情发展无关紧要,整个故事也非常混乱。虽然所获评价褒贬不一,但《圣埃尔默》还是在商业上获得成功,据称还创下了票房纪录。次年,埃文斯另一部小说《比尤拉》改编的同名电影上映,小说与《圣埃尔默》没有关联,但电影却是作为《圣埃尔默》的续集来宣传。如今,《圣埃尔默》很可能像巴尔博亚公司的大部分电影作品一样已经。 (zh)
