It is not often that I have the opportunity to review a movie I considered a beautiful movie, but this movie was a beautiful movie! It was a beautiful movie because of the story, the performances by Nazimova and Rudolph Valentino, and the set decorations by Natacha Rambova! Do not be misled by Rudolph Valentino's extravagant acting in "The Sheik"-he was capable of subdued and subtle acting, and his performance in this movie was an example of it. He was also romantic-beautifully romantic! If I must compare it to the talking version, I am in favor of this version! As much as I admire Greta Garbo and Robert Taylor, Nazimova and Rudolph Valentino were a better fit as Marguerite and Armand! My one regret is that Nazimova deleted his deathbed scene-I understand he was brilliant in it!
