What happens

A Reno Divorce is a 1927 American synchronized sound romantic drama film produced and distributed by Warner Bros. While the film has no audible dialogue, it was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects using the Vitaphone sound-on-disc process. Ralph Graves wrote, directed and stars in this film which was the last of the five films he ever directed. The visual portion of the film is now considered lost. The soundtrack survives on Vitaphone discs. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
