THE SHEIK.

Lady Diana Mayo (Agnes Ayres) refuses a marriage proposal because she believes it would be the end of her independence. The Sheik Ahmed Ben Hassan (Rudolph Valentino) sends her away after realizing she is white. Diana borrows an Arab dancer's costume and sneaks into the local casino. She is finally allowed to go into the desert under the watchful eye of the Sheik's French valet Gaston.
