The first version was made in 1917, the second in 1932.
You can find the torrent file of the first version, at least I have a copy
of it.
It doesn’t sound as one of the best Gance’s movies.

Oggetto: The torture of silence
The original title of the film seems to be Mater Dolorosa and is
described as Gance's first commercial success. The story as far as I can
gather is a love triangle - a wife, the husband, the husband's brother -
that had to be toned down for US release. Gance remade it in the sound
era.
