At the first private showing of "The Eternal Temptress," which is Lina Cavalieri's first photoplay, made for Paramount under the direction of Emile Chautard, Adolph Zukor, President of the Famous Players-Lasky Film Corporation, said; "It is seldom that a face so beautiful as that of Cavalieri is found, and still more seldom that it can be caught in all its exquisite loveliness by the camera, which performs queer tricks of vision and has been known to lie outright about a beautiful face,
"Cavalieri is of the rare type of dark, exotic beauty which seems to photograph brilliantly and to make the possessor stand out from the screen and become almost a living, breathing character. I think it is safe to say that 'The Eternal Temptress' will be one of the most successful pictures ever put out by Paramount."

This is "The Eternal Temptress" by Mme. Fred de Gresac. The story deals with beautiful Cordelia Sanzio (Cavalieri), at the opening of the story a widow and princess living in modern Venice and playing with the affections of men as a cat plays idly with its victims. One of her most fervent lovers was young Harry Althrop, son of a distinguished American diplomat.
An Austrian nobleman, desiring to obtain possession of an important document which would give him knowledge of Italy's position in the present war (before Italy had joined forces with the Allies), plays upon Harry's love by making him insanely jealous of a young Austrian Aid, Count Rudolph.
The way they take advantage of his mad affection for Cordelia and force him to steal the documents they desier, and the manner in which Cordelia, at last really in love, saves both Harry and her country's honor, makes a photoplay of throbbing vital interest.
