ShangLuda Admirable film.
AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Michael_Elliott His Trust Fulfilled (1911) **** (out of 4) Sequel to His Trust finds the servant George (Wlfred Lucas) still taking care of the dead soldier's family but after the mother's death he finds it even harder to support the daughter and send her to college. Once again people could debate the use of blackface but with that aside this is another example of showing black people in a positive light, which was something that wouldn't become the norm for at least fifty-years. As with the first film, Griffith's direction is very tender in terms of telling the story because it's clear he had admiration for the servant character. Griffith allows the character to fully grow and not once is he seen in a negative way. Loyalty is something Griffith often did films about and this here is one of the best. Both movies were probably split in two so that theater owners could charge double admission but watching them together is the best way to go. Once again Lucas delivers a fine performance as George with Dorothy West, Jack Pickford and Mack Sennett doing fine supporting work.
wes-connors This sequel to D.W. Griffith's "His Trust" (1911) picks up right where the previous film left off - loyal slave Wilfred Lucas (as George) continues to be the faithful and devoted servant to his Master's family. Despite the Emancipation Proclamation, he remains slavishly devoted. He supports the ailing Claire McDowell (Mrs. Foster), and "The Little Orphan" as she grows from Gladys Egan into Dorothy West. When money runs out, he fights to avoid the temptation to steal. Ms. West is his ward until she weds a wealthy suitor. The newlyweds hardly seem grateful, as they run off to leave old slave George hobbling back to his shack, in rags! - but, he is content, with "His Trust Fulfilled". * His Trust Fulfilled (1/19/11) D.W.

Snow Leopard This sequel to "His Trust" has some good moments, but it could have been better. It probably works better as a statement of some of D.W. Griffith's personal perspectives than it does as a movie. The story is worthwhile in itself, though - it just would have benefited from more subtlety and from less simplistic characters.In "His Trust Fulfilled", the faithful George does everything possible to fulfill his promise to his former 'owner', even when it leads him into great personal difficulties. This idea seems to have been a favorite with Griffith, and indeed one of his best short features, "The Girl And Her Trust", featured a very similar idea, but in a different and more contemporary setting.The story really has some potential, and there are some moments when it seems about to become quite moving. But, unfortunately, the story too often goes for quick, simple resolutions of problems, and on more than one occasion it stretches the portrayal of George past the point of credibility.Sometimes when film-makers feel too passionately about their material, they push too hard and make it less believable rather than more so, and that could be the case here. It's still probably worth seeing if you are interested in silent dramas and/or cinema history, but a slightly different approach could have made it a much better movie.
cgw-3 Wonderful sequel is better than the original. Continuing where the first movie left half (it's regarded as both a sequel and the second half of the story), George takes care of the daughter after her mother suffers a heart attack. Acting is not on calibur par, but it still succeeds.
