Stunning, stylish Garb silent, 4 September 2000
Author: nickandrew from PA

Standard, but beautifully done silent about alluring Russian spy (Garbo) falling for Austrian soldier (Nagel). A marvelous mix of thrill, romance, and deceit helps the film's lesser moments. The MGM/UA Home Video version contains symphonic music score and crowd noises, which enhances the film's style.
