Storyline:Even after talkies were inaugurated in 1927, Garbo starred in more silents, e.g.,The Single Standard (1929)andThe Kiss (1929).Many other silent stars had already failed or struggled to make the transition to the sound era - Nita Naldi, Vilma Banky, and John Gilbert (satirized in MGM""sSingin"" in the Rain (1952)).Harry was forced to write: "I must not tell lies" using one of her special quills without ink (the phrase painfully appeared in blood on the back of his left hand, creating a scar).The film was introduced with a voice-over narration (by Vic Perrin) about the pagan, oppressive and dictatorial rule of the Roman Republic before the institution of Christianity, when a "disease called human slavery" was rampant in society.The foreman, riding in a buggy, chides everyone to work hard, while the owner sits in a padded chair in the middle of a field.
