Silent Cinema Showcase: FLESH AND THE DEVIL (1926) in 35mm 🎞️ 100th Anniversary4K Restoration featuring live musical accompaniment by Donald Sosin and Joanna Seaton + intro by Kirk McDowell, Associate Collection Manager, Moving Image Department, George Eastman Museum
The first of seven Greta Garbo films directed by Clarence Brown, as well as the first to pair her with "The Great Lover" John Gilbert. Army cadets Gilbert and Lars Hanson are sworn blood brothers. Gilbert falls madly in love with the seductive Garbo, and, after killing her husband in a duel, is dispatched to Africa to avoid further scandal. He returns years later to find that Hanson, unaware of his friend's illicit romance with Garbo, has married her himself. William Daniels' masterly cinematography dazzles, most memorably during the climactic confrontation in the snow. NOT RATED
