    It is quite risky to make a silent film about an opera star - so much of the passion and power of the piece must surely come from the singing? Well Greta Garbo gives it a damn good try here - and pretty much pulls it off as "Leonora", the young girl in love with the son of the local landed gentry "Don Rafael" (Ricardo Cortez). His rather imperious mother "Doña Bernarda" (Martha Mattox) is having none of it - and soon arranges for the young woman and her family to be turfed from their home. With her father, she heads to Paris where her singing talents reap huge rewards - and she returns to Spain...
