Join us in our Victorian parlour to watch the classic 1926 silent film "Flesh & the Devil" starring Greta Garbo, John Gilbert, Lars Hanson, and Barbara Kent.Flesh and the Devil was the first of five films in which Greta Garbo co-starred with her real-life lover John Gilbert. Both on and off screen, theirs was one of Hollywood's greatest romances. Set in Prussia, the film is a melodrama of love, adultery, duels and retribution, based on Hermann Sudermann's 1894 novel 'The Undying Past'. Davis uses rich scoring with echoes of 19th-century German Romanticism to complement Garbo and Gilbert's on-screen romance. The glorious love theme, as heard for instance in the garden scene, is one of his finest creations.
