The Rise of Catherine the Great (1934)
La femme qui deviendra Catherine la Grande se marie dans la famille royale russe lorsqu'elle épousera le grand-duc Pierre, le neveu de l'impératrice Elizabeth. Bien que le couple ait des moments de contentement, le comportement cruel et erratique de Peter provoque une rupture entre lui et Catherine. Quelques mois à peine après que Peter succède à sa tante à la tête de la Russie, une révolte se prépare et Catherine est sur le point de monter sur le trône en tant que nouvelle impératrice du pays.
