8022 Code SADI The Forbidden City Selznick
Featuring Norma Tahnadgc and TJiomas Meighan
The scene is laid in the Far East where Norma Talmadge plays, at first, the part of a mandarin's daughter in old China, whose father seeks reinstatement in the Emperor's favor by giving his daughter San San to the Emperor's household. But San San is having her own beautiful romance, as the secret wife of the young American Consul (played by Thomas Meighan).
The Consul is ordered first to Shanghai and later to Manila. Hastily revisiting his former post, for the purpose of bringing his wife San San to his new office, he arrives only to find that her family have disappeared and left no trace. Heartbroken he departs.
Meanwhile, San San is presented at the Emperor's palace in the Forbidden City in the gorgeous panoply of the Emperor's favorite wife. Kneeling before his Majesty, she opens her mantle to disclose at her breast, Baby Toy, which has blessed her union with her "Love Man." In a rage, the Emperor orders her father and herself to be executed. Pretending to be moved by her tears, he promises her release and safe conduct to her home, but has her treacherously stabbed from behind the curtains as she leaves the room.
The child is saved and reared in the Emperor's household, an object of contempt on account of her alien blood.
We next see Toy (also played by Norma Talmadge) now 18 years of age, insulted by the pure bred Chinese of the Emperor's household, who are jealous of her because of her superior beauty and charm.
After a thrilling escape, she reaches ]\Ianila, becomes a Red Cross nurse, and falls in love with a young Lieutenant of the x\rmy, but they are forbidden to marry by the Governor General (her father) on account of her Chinese blood.
Her father does not recognize her, but is conscious of vague reminiscences which, in a following illness and delirium, cause Toy (now his nurse) to recognize him as her father. In his convalescence everything is cleared up and the happy lovers are united.
Two popular stars in a well-directed, romantic play that will enthrall any audience.
