No one ever commented about the fact that the wife in the beginning saying that he was in the hospital for a year with broken legs. Even back then, that seems like an excessively long time to be in the hospital with broken bones.
Yeah, that does seem unusual. The translation read, " Do you want to break your legs again and spend a year in the hospital again?" I guess that phrasing could suggest that maybe there were other injuries in addition to the broken legs? (I would think there would have been. ) Or maybe it was a sort of long-term rehab place instead of a hospital as we think of it today. Maybe not. Either way, I don't think I'd be antsy to get back on the trapeze!

A concussion, cracked skull, etc. Maybe he even survived a broken neck... but I guess I'm assuming a lot from that one title
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
a fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
and celluloid heroes never really die...

Yeah, maybe there was more to his injury.... None of my business, anyway! I shouldn't have pried so forcefully into his personal life.
You trying to tell me you didn't hear that shriek? That was something trying to get out of its premature grave, and I don't want to be here when it does. - Phantom of the Paradise (1974)
All right. Now that we have completed all the films, I have a big question:
Who's the greatest vamp of them all?
After careful consideration, my vote goes to:
► Show Spoiler
Theda Bara!! Don't forget.... She was SITTING right next to where the guy shot himself because of her!!

Yikes, tough choice! Who do I choose? I didn't think I'd end up with a tie-breaker Luckily you two managed to delve into the various subcategories of vamps awhile back. I have to narrow it down to Bara and Naldi; they're both very effective at vamping, but with key differences as described by Kitty...
...I also agree with you that she might have surpassed Theda, though I really think that these are two different kinds of vamps. Theda seemed to have some black magic going on, while Nita seems to be more on the side of a heartless human being...
And then we have the actual subcategories as described by Donnie...
