CGiii Comment

It would be interesting to see this film in its entirety...but, alas, lost.

For many years, “Bella Donna” was considered a lost film, until some footage was found at the Czech Film Archive. Even if large parts of this interesting film are missing, we could always enjoy Conrad’s performance. He plays here the role of the evil Egyptian Mahmoud Baroudi, who pursues a married woman, manipulating her to fall so desperately in love with him, that she would try to kill her husband.
