Pretty wild....I do wonder what the neighbors were thinking....

Hummm....I didn't know "La Traviata" was based on "Camille"....I like "La Traviata" better than this version however, the first "Camille" I have seen. There are differences but will not supply spoilers.... IMO a great rendition of La Traviata is the 1983 renditon (as it isn't a recording of a staged opera, but more like a movie)....with Teresa Stratas, Plácido Domingo & Cornell MacNeil.

Rudolf Valentino's wife, Natacha Rambova, did the designs.

You should see the Garbo film of Camille.

Thanks for the info!!!! I do have the Garbo film, but it seems when I find it I'm not in the mood for it.

Marguerite's bedroom was odd with see through gauze curtains between it and the living room.

Weird! I thought I saw some stains, I don't know if it was water stains or glue stains, but they seem to run horizontal along the walls. I couldn't get into the design.

The Garbo and the Valentino versions are now on one DVD

And there's a 1967 movie version of LA TRAVIATA with Anna Moffo.

I'm the kind of guy, when I move - watch my smoke. But I'm gonna need some good clothes though.

Nazimova was strange,and that wild hair.She was ahead of her time with her set designs.The apt.was very odd,also I love curtains draping an entrance way.The casino was different with the band,up in a little alcove.I thought Valentino was somewhat miscast in this....
