What happens

The Woman from Moscow is a 1928 American synchronized sound drama film starring Pola Negri. This was Negri's last film without synchronized speech. While the film has no audible dialog, it was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects using the sound-on-film Western Electric Sound System process. The picture is a remake of Paramount's 1918 Pauline Frederick film Fedora, based on the play by Victorien Sardou. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
