LADY B.

Venice, July 1909. A boy from south of Italy, just rejected from the Naval Academy because of thoracic

insufficiency and a slight squint, unexpectedly rescues a British pretty widow's life, Lady B.

The two are joined only by a hopeless vitality and an unconsciousness desire.

That boy will become, in few years, the greatest mute film icon: Rudolph Valentino.
