What Male and Female Is About
Cecil B. DeMille's 1919 silent film was adapted from a stage play. An aristocratic family and their servants are shipwrecked on an island, and the order of class turns over: the only person who knows how to survive is the butler, so the island quickly organises itself around him. The film uses that reversal as both an adventure and a criticism of society, and then shows how easily the old arrangement returns once they are off the island. DeMille also drops a lavish dream sequence into the middle of it. Gloria Swanson moved close to stardom with this picture, and Thomas Meighan plays the butler.
