Blood and Sand (1922) is a silent film about one figure: the great Rudolph Valentino as a bravura bullfighter. This digest version of Blood and Sand also offers informative commentary about the film throughout the entire silent feature. An international sex icon, Valentino’s presence on screen is palpable. Here in Blood and Sand, Valentino is given ample opportunity to exude his ultra masculinity in the face of constant danger – be it from bulls or beautiful women. Featuring femme fatales Lila Lee and Nita Naldi, Rudolph has much to work with in this short silent film that has the gravitas of an epic. Blood and Sand is a touchstone Rudolph Valentino film that captures the essence of his brief but bright career.
