Single Standard

For a number of generations, men have done as they please and women have done as men pleased. Not so for San Francisco socialite Arden Stuart (Greta Garbo). To be fulfilled, she wants the freedom men have to take or leave love where they find it. So she embarks on a sensual seafaring odyssey with a boxer-turned-artist who declares, There are many theories about love, but only one answer: equality and perfect freedom. But can any woman be free without paying a terrible price? In this daring late silent, the divine Garbo is ideally cast playing a character in many ways like herself: unconventional, independent, desired. And look for an in-joke Garbo fans will love the name of the yacht is All Alone.
