The Lady of Victories is a 1928 MGM silent fictionalized film short in two-color Technicolor. It was the third short film produced as part of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's "Great Events" series.
The film began production at the Tec-Art Studio in Hollywood on November 21, 1927, and wrapped on November 26.[2] [3] It was the first of the "Great Events" shorts to credit Andre Chotin art director.[4] The production featured some of experimental nighttime exterior scenes, a risky artistic and technical undertaking at the time, because of the amount of light needed for proper exposure on Technicolor's film stock.[5]
The film accompanied the Charlie Chaplin silent feature The Circus (1928 film) in many theaters during its initial release.[6]
The Lady of Victories has been partially preserved, with 1,000 foot fragments preserved by EYE Film Institute, the George Eastman House, and the UCLA Film and Television Archive.[7]
