The first in Turner Classic Movies' month-long celebration of Gay Pride, this 1912 silent film is one of the first portrayal of an obviously "gay" character on screen.
Another delightful scene between Ramon Novarro and Dorothy Janis from 1928's, "The Pagan".
Ramon Novarro, Joan Crawford and Ernest Torrence in a cute scene edited from 1928's "Across to Singapore".
Ramon Novarro crooning "How Can You Be So Charming?" from his first talking picture in 1929. Looks, charm and a voice, Ramon had it all.
Island boy, Ramon Novarro romances island girl, Dorothy Janis to the hit tune, "Pagan Love Song" in a delightful scene from "The Pagan". Note: This film was silent with a sychronized musical score on disc. The lip movements in the song do not always match, nor were they likely to have been intended to.
Ramon Novarro and Dorothy Janis in a simply wonderful scene from "The Pagan" (1928). Ramon's effortless charm here, is a sterling example of why he had the movie-going public wrapped around his little finger.
