" A 'SWAN' IS A GIRL WHOSE 'NO' MEANS 'YES'"

The Swan (1925) is a silent film produced by Famous Players-Lasky and distributed by Paramount Pictures.

This film was directed by Dimitri Buchowetzki, a recent Russian immigrant working for Famous Players-Lasky. Buchowetzki had directed pictures in Russia, Sweden, and Germany. The story of this film was remade in 1930 as One Romantic Night, an early talkie for Lillian Gish, and in Technicolor as a 1956 vehicle for Grace Kelly.
