THE AFFAIRS OF ANATOL
CECIL B. DEMILLE USA, 1921
Based on a play by Arthur Schnitzler, who also penned the source novel behind Eyes Wide Shut, Cecil B. DeMille’s sex comedy fizzes with naughtiness. Delightfully flighty as an upper-class newlywed, Gloria Swanson ushers in the roaring twenties and its carefree attitudes towards love and marriage.
