...Eagle. Rudolph Valentino has pulled himself successfully out of the mud. The last drying flakes of his tour in favor of Mineralava Beauty Clay have disappeared, and he is once more a foremost favorite of the screen. This latest picture is among his best. It was adapted from the novel of Pushkin, and treats of a Russian youth who (figuratively) thumbed his nose at the Tsarina and considerably displeased the royal household.

British Life Guards in full uniform and mounted on night-black charges cantered bravely to Victoria Station, wheeled through its gloomy archway, and drew up with a flashing salute before a strip of red carpet down which the Prince was not destined to march for another 24 hours...
