What happens

The Red Dance (also known as The Red Dancer of Moscow) is a 1928 American synchronized sound film directed by Raoul Walsh and starring Dolores del Río and Charles Farrell that was inspired by the novel by Henry Leyford Gates. While the film has no audible dialog, it was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects using the sound-on-film movietone process. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
