Greta Garbo achieved top Hollywood stardom with this silent romance about a young man who kills the husband of his great love in a duel and must compete with his best friend for her affections.
The Big Parade’s John Gilbert was at the peak of his career when he played the film’s lead, and his chemistry with Garbo led to three more movies together as well as a passionate off-screen romance. The film’s cinematographer, Oscar-winner William H. Daniels, would be Garbo’s principal lensman for the rest of her career.
DIRECTED BY: Clarence Brown. WRITTEN BY: Benjamin F. Glazer. WITH: John Gilbert, Greta Garbo, Lars Hanson, Barbara Kent. 1926. 112 min. USA. B&W. Silent. English intertitles. 35mm.
