About Merry-Go-Round
A nobleman posing as a necktie salesman falls in love with the daughter of a circus puppeteer, although he's already wed to the daughter of his country's war minister.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1923.
