Love Makes Us Blind was the English-language title of the "all star" German romantic drama Liebe Macht Blind. Emil Jannings, Conrad Veidt and Lil Dagover perform their roles in such a capricious fashion that some viewers mistook the picture for a satire of its genre. The story concerns a worldly woman who captivates an impressionable young man. When the heroine makes a fool of her husband, he retaliates in such a way as to convince her to watch her step in all future endeavors. The film was the fourth directorial effort of Lothar Mendes, who would do his best work in Hollywood and England. Filmed in 1925, Love Makes Us Blind didn't get to the U.S. until two years later.
