Another great role for Valentino! The art deco sets and fashions are, in themselves, quite astounding to me; however, I find the story rather compelling in this re-telling, and I was pleased they chose the book and not the play's version of the ending for this adaptation. I hope you enjoy this film and thanks for watching. Take care! - Gen :)
