This is How Brothers Behave

Arthur Johnson gets drunk and his brother, Dell Henderson, tries to stop him from making a fool of himself. Alas, he fails, and their mother kicks him out. Johnson decides to take his revenge on the source of his woes: Henderson.

I've got a brother and this is a bit overblown, but accurate. I suppose if you're Hispanic and in a movie in a melodramatic era, this is how you might behave. Me, I just sulk.

Griffith shot this movie during one of his winter expeditions to southern California. He used the local landscape, setting some of the scenes in now-vanished scenes, including an adobe building. Although his company's acting is broader than usual for this period, which can be attributed to how he thought Hispanics behave and his crowd scenes make sense, although they would continue to improve. He had only been directing for two and a half years at this point.
