This film is presented by Silents, Please! STL and will feature a special introduction from SPSTL’s Kate Stewart.

One of the best films you’ve never seen, SO THIS IS PARIS (1926) from comedic master Ernst Lubitsch is a delightful, Jazz Age bon-bon! Lubitsch deftly juggles the chaos of love and lies colliding in the most humorous of ways — climaxing with a chaotic and transcendent jazz ball, with more feathers and sparkles than you can imagine. When Dr. Giraud (Monte Blue) goes to a neighboring apartment to make a complaint, he is shocked to find his old flame, dancer Georgette Lalle (Lilyan Tashman). The chance encounter rekindles a romance, and as Giraud and Georgette start to meet, he tells various cover stories to his wife, Suzanne (Patsy Ruth Miller), about needy patients. After Suzanne hears on the radio that Georgette and Giraud have won a Charleston dance contest, she finally starts to see the truth.
