About The Eagle (1925)

The Eagle is a 1925 American silent adventure film directed by Clarence Brown and starring Rudolph Valentino, Vilma Bánky, and Louise Dresser. Based loosely on Alexander Pushkin's posthumously published 1841 novel Dubrovsky, the film is set in imperial Russia and follows a disgraced lieutenant who becomes a masked outlaw known as the Black Eagle.

Vladimir Dubrovsky, a Lieutenant serving in the Imperial Guard of the Russian army, comes to the notice of the Czarina when he rescues Mascha, a beautiful young lady, and her aunt trapped in a runaway stagecoach. He is delighted when the Czarina offers to make him a general, but horrified when she tries to seduce him. He flees and the Czarina puts a price on his head. Soon afterwards, he receives a letter from his father informing him that the evil nobleman Kyrilla Troekouroff has taken over his lands and is terrorizing the countryside. Hurrying home, Vladimir learns that his father has died.
