Dreaming of ... The Look of Pola Negri
Diva, dark beauty and exotic glamor puss, Pola Negri was the silent screen vamp deluxe.
Utterly unique, long after her gaze shifted elsewhere, you never forgot the "look" of Pola:

She was fascinating. Thanks for these rarely-seen pics. Do you think the love affair with Rudolph Valentino was legit--or a (very long) publicity stunt?
ReplyDeleteI think that their affair was very real, although Rudy may have to have died to get away from her! But, they looked genuinely happy together during their affair.

With Pola - it was always all about her. She was a publicity hound first and foremost!
ReplyDeleteFlickChick, I didn't realize you had met her....
DeleteShe was gorgeous! In the silent film era, they surely knew how to express emotions, and who wouldn't want to stare into those eyes of hers.
ReplyDeleteThiss was lovely to read
