Romance (1930)
When Gavin Gordon’s grandson announces he wants to marry a woman of a different social class, Gordon recounts his own similar tale from years earlier when he fell in love with opera singer Greta Garbo. Garbo is quite capable when portraying a tragic romance, but the film itself doesn’t offer much else. It is short and simple but it feels longer than it actually is.
