In this adaptation of Oscar Wilde's comedy of manners, the cause of much confusion is the sensational and indiscreet Mrs Erlynne. She returns to London, sends for Lord Windermere and reveals that she is his wife's mother, long thought deceased. When the notorious woman demands payment for her secrecy, a satiric comedy of errors ensues. Considered by many to be Lubitsch's best silent film, Lady Windermere's Fan is Note worthy for its incisive detail, discreet touches and precise nuances. (Circulates)
