Valentino (1977)
Synopsis
In 1926, the tragic and untimely death of a silent
screen actor caused female movie-goers to riot in the streets and in
some cases to commit suicide - that actor was Rudolph Valentino.
Ball-room dancer Valentino manipulated his good looks and bestial grace
into a Hollywood career. His smoldering love-making, tinged with a touch
of masterful cruelty, expressed a sexuality which was at once both
shocking and sensual.
