Steve D 02/21/2024 Great work from Garbo and a strong story. See more 12/14/2021 This isn't the best silent movie Garbo made, but it was the last and final silent film for MGM. Garbo plays the sympathetic no longer in love wife and caught feeling for a doting younger man. A story of tortured romance with mystery thrown in towards the end but the main attractions are the romance and cinematography. See more 02/01/2019 The best romance movie ever made! See more 07/22/2014 the last silent picture made at MGM studios See more 04/14/2012 Garbo is so great that she seems to be living while everyone else is merely performing. See more 12/31/2008 I think the story is a good representation of the modern society, a unhappy wife with a jealous husband, a lover, a boy and the kiss that starts trouble. Interesting story!!!
