Lon Chaney stars as an anguished and ugly outcast, this time donning a 50-pound hairy hump to become Quasimodo-the hunchback with a heart of gold in the film version of Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Filmed at the height of the silent film era, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a spectacular production with gargantuan sets, lavish costumes, and brilliant performances.
