A Modern Marriage
About A Modern Marriage
The baron reads a magazine. The baroness reads a newspaper. A maid brings a note from Franz calling the baron to the club. He kisses his wife and leaves, then meets a woman in a private room with champagne. At home the baroness writes a letter signed Divine Lola and sets a meeting at a pension. She receives her own guest on a bed, in an undershirt, and they stay in a long embrace.
