Roze Kate

1912

A creaky silent melodrama of jealousy and inheritance, watched more for its historical texture than for sustained suspense.

Overview
Evert has found the girl of his dreams in Roze Kate, much to the jealousy of his brothers Jacob and Simon. Then something completely unexpected happens when their father dies. If their mother remarries, she can ensure that her sons will lose their father's inheritance, prompting Jacob and Simon to hatch a plan to murder their mother. When it happens, all the evidence points to Evert, who was not involved in the plot. It seems that Roze Kate is playing a cunning game to deprive the boys of their inheritance.
