Southern California Premiere of the Restored Copy!!
A Woman of the World (1925, 104 min.) stars Pola Negri in a comedy about a worldly European Countess who comes to visit her American cousin to find culture shock at every turn. Today, Negri is associated with playing the classic vamp character, but here she shows she could also be a delightful comedienne. Directed by Mal St. Clair, this film has just been restored by Paramount and will have its preservation premiere at the San Francisco Silent Film Festival in June. This screening will be the first in Southern California.
