Cecil B. De Mille directed this risqué all-star revue of decadence which must have been jaw-dropping in 1921 and which remains astonishing today, although for entirely different reasons.

Anatol de Witt Spencer (Wallace Reid), as incredibly wealthy as he is naïve, and his child-like bride Vivian (Gloria Swanson) are on their honeymoon.At a posh speakeasy he spies his high school sweetheart, who is obviously the sex toy of flamboyant old Gordon Bronson.To Vivian's dismay, idealistic Anatol decides to rescue the seductive Emilie, but soon she goes back to Bronson.

This DVD edition is digitally mastered from an elaborate original print featuring hand coloring, stencil coloring, and dozens of changes in color tint and tone, in itself a striking work of art.The Affairs of Anatol is presented at a visually correct projection speed (21 frames per second) with a digital stereo score compiled by Brian Benison from authentic silent cinema music.
