À quoi s’attendre
Betty Compson plays Lola opposite George Barraud’s David in Victor Saville’s 1929 sound adaptation. After a wartime injury erases David’s memory of their relationship, he returns to his former life and marries Vesta. The drama asks what his recovered memories mean for both women.
Comment aborder le film
Keep Lola’s history with David separate from Vesta’s understanding of their marriage. Listen for the song that reconnects him with his wartime past, and follow how the three characters respond to what he remembers.
