Released March 30, 1929
Directed by Sidney Franklin.
Cast includes Greta Garbo,
Nils Asther, Lewis Stone
Exotic fare in which Garbo is a
bored housewife trying to regain the affections of her disinterested husband
(played by Lewis Stone.)
A trip to the Orient and an invitation
to the palace of a handsome Javanese man (Asther) could spell trouble for
the unhappy Garbo. This film is mostly noted for an elaborate outfit
(a prelude to Mata Hari) and a sexy dance she does to try
to seduce her husband.
