Black Roses (1936)
The delectable Lillian Harvey plays a Russian ballerina, stranded in turn-of-the-century Finland. She falls in love with sculptor Esmond Knight, a political dissident with a price on his head. To save Knight, Harvey spends the night with Tsarist governor Robert Rendel. The story is based on the real-life ballerina Marina Feodorovna, who ended up sacrificing her life on behalf of her lover.

The bonfire dance was a nice touch, but otherwise the elegance made this a bore. This was a three language project, recapturing scenes in German, French and this the English speaking version. Perhaps the pacing feels more natural when shot in German, because the original production crew was based there. That's usually the case with these type of productions. Time will tell if I ever get to see the other versions to do a comparison.
