Fleeting Beauty

Only 9 minutes of "The Divine Woman" are available to the public (on "The Garbo Silents Collection" DVD set). Even with so little screen time, Garbo is memorably lovely.

Her soldier lover is about to ship out and their tender, bittersweet moments together are beautifully acted and shot. Looks like this was shaping up to be wonderful picture. Pity we can't see the rest of it.
