The Clemenceau Case (1915)

Iza's sinister beauty and its effect on the lives of two men form the main plot of "The Clemenceau Case." She casts off her husband Pierre. Constantin Ritz leaves with his career as a talented sculptor blasted. In turn she toys with Ritz, but Pierre saves Ritz against himself. He allows himself, apparently, to fall once more under Iza's spell. As she presses her false lips to Pierre's he stabs her to the heart just as Ritz enters. "I have saved you for your wife," says Pierre calmly as he telephones for the police.
