What happens
Anna Boleyn (U.S. title: Deception) is a 1920 German historical film in six acts, directed by Ernst Lubitsch. It tells the story of the second marriage of King Henry VIII of England to Anne Boleyn, and stars Emil Jannings as Henry VIII and Henny Porten as Anne. The film was produced by Paul Davidson's Union Film, a subsidiary of the giant German company UFA. The film cost an estimated 8 million marks to make, but was able to recoup this from the sale of the American rights alone which brought in $200,000 (14 million marks). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
