An Adventuress est un film américain muet réalisé par Fred J. Balshofer sorti en 1920.

Synopsis

Jack Perry (Julian Eltinge), Dick Sayre (William Clifford) et Lyn Brook (Frederick Ko Vert) sont trois jeunes américains en quête d'aventures.

Leurs pérégrinations les mènent dans le pays imaginaire d'Alpania, en proie à la guerre civile, quelque part en Europe. Jack, immédiatement, a des problèmes avec les autorités du pays qui le condamnent à mort. Lyn fait sauter la prison où son ami se trouve détenu et ce dernier, déguisé en Mlle Pandora, infiltre les monarchistes tout en séduisant Zana (Virginia Rappe) une courtisane.

Puis Lynn se travestit à son tour en Mlle Thelma, donnant aux républicains le temps de monter un complot contre les royalistes. Lorsque Jack est capturé de nouveau, il décide de fuir Alpania et après s'être emparé d'un avion, il s'échappe avec Zana aux États-Unis…[1]

Autour du film

Il existe plusieurs versions de ce même film.

Ce dernier a d'abord été écrit et tourné par Fred J. Balshofer en 1918 pour être une satire contre l'Allemagne et utilisé à des fins de propagande. Son titre de travail était Over the Rhine - Par delà le Rhin-. Le film ne sort finalement que deux ans plus tard et est monté en une histoire sensiblement différente.

Puis, le film sort à nouveau en 1922. Dans sa distribution, figure Rudolph Valentino, inconnu lorsque le film a été tourné. Devant l'immense succès de la star quelques années plus tard, Fred J. Balshofer remonte à nouveau le film en une troisième version The Isle of Love dans laquelle il reprend des rushes précédemment inutilisés pour donner un rôle plus important à la vedette tout en modifiant l'intrigue.

Type of coastline created by the folding of differing rock layers parallel to the coast Freshwater Bay, Isle of Wight is an example of an area of concordant coastline - the town of Freshwater is situated on a cove which formed in the hard chalk coastline. In coastal geography, a concordant, longitudinal, or Pacific type coastline occurs where beds, or layers, of differing rock types are folded into ridges that run parallel to the coast.[1] The outer hard rock (for example, granite) pr...
