Overview

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia · Read full article · Text CC BY-SA 4.0

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. Black Eagle does not exist in the novel and was inspired by the performance of Douglas Fairbanks as Zorro in The Mark of Zorro. Produced by United Artists, The Eagle was one of Valentino's most successful late-career films, showcasing his shift from exotic romantic roles to swashbuckling adventure.
