Blood And Sand

Rudolph Valentino stars in this silent-era drama as a young Spaniard who wants to become a famous matador. Determined to escape poverty and support his widowed mother, Juan quickly rises to national prominence as a bullfighter and marries Carmen, his longtime love. As Juan’s celebrity grows, his devastatingly good looks and growing appetite for everything leave him vulnerable to the throngs of women who want him. When Dona Sol (Nita Naldi), a beautiful and exotic society woman, seduces Juan, it marks his fall from grace as gradually his fame, wife, and mistress desert him.
