About Birds of Prey

Directed by William James Craft, Birds of Prey leans on a strong ensemble — Priscilla Dean, Hugh Allan, Gustav von Seyffertitz — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1927.
