Josephine Baker, Siren of the Tropics



This sequence from the 1927 French silent film La sirène des tropiques (Siren of the Tropics) has added music to make it bearable. It was Josephine Baker's first film and made her a star across Europe. She doesn't show up for the first two minutes, but when she does, she steals the show.
