'A Woman of Affairs' is a very well made film and quite ravishingly photographed in the best moments. Carl Davis (known for writing compositions for many silent films much later on) provides a haunting and well fitting score, even if other scores of his for other films did better at enhancing the atmosphere, action etc. Summing up, worth seeing for Garbo especially but didn't blow me away. 7/10

Their plans to marry are thwarted by Neville's father, Sir Morton (Hobart Bosworth), who disapproves of the Merrick ...
Garbo is, as ever, mesmerising as the misjudged heroine who is tortured by an unattainable love, and Douglas Fairbanks Junior gives one of his better performances as a man gradually succumbing to alcoholism. Gilbert only comes into his own in the last third of the film, and by now it is clear that Garbo has overtaken him as MGM's leading light.
Retitled A Woman of Affairs, this tale of a woman destroyed by syphilis was heavily laundered for the screen. Greta Garbo plays an impulsive British lass who, when denied permission to marry John Gilbert, hops from bed to bed with various partners.
