Set in the Imperial Court of 18th-century Russia, The Eagle is a dashing and romantic adventure in which Rudolph Valentino gives what many consider to be his finest screen performance.Here is a role tailor-made for the legendary Valentino--that of Vladimir, the handsome young Cossack guardsman who is banished after rejecting the amorous advances of Catherine the Great (stunningly portrayed by Louise Dresser) and becomes the "Black Eagle," a Russian Robin Hood dedicated to robbing the rich and giving to the down-trodden peasants.
