Wild Orchids
Released March 30, 1929
Directed by Sidney Franklin
Cast includes Greta Garbo, Nils Asther, Lewis Stone
Exotic fare in which Garbo plays a bored housewife trying to regain the affections of her disinterested husband (Lewis Stone). A trip to the Orient and an invitation to the palace of a handsome Javanese man (Nils Asther) could spell trouble for the unhappy wife. This film is mostly notable for an elaborate outfit (a prelude to Mata Hari) and a sexy dance she does to seduce her husband.
