A trivial story of two boyhood friends separated by a femme fatale becomes a thing of exquisite beauty when the woman is played by Greta Garbo, and the film is directed by Clarence Brown. Garbo had been brought by MGM to the United States based on her film work in Sweden. She was cast as a temptress in three films in 1926, but it was Flesh and the Devil and her chemistry with co-star John Gilbert that ensured her status as a great Hollywood star. It was said that Garbo and Gilbert fell in love while making the film, and there is no denying their sensuous, erotic charge.
