Queen Kelly

Erich von Stroheim / US, 1929 / 100 min.

Magnificently filmed and decadence-filled melodrama about the African adventures of a smitten orphan girl. Gloria Swanson and Erich von Stroheim had screaming rows during the shooting. Screened as part of the Billy Wilder programme, with live music.
