Synopsis

In 1923 silent film icon Rudolph Valentino found himself unexpectedly unable to work. His 'one man strike' against his studio demanding better films resulted in court battles which legally prohibited the Latin Lover from acting in any capacity. Valentino was sorely in need of an income. At the same time his interest in the Occult and Spiritualism was growing. He and his new wife, Natacha Rambova, sought the guidance of mediums, spirit guides and automatic writing. Rambova would later claim her husband was quite adept at receiving messages from the other side via automatic writing. "Day Dreams", a book of poetry, was released during Valentino's one man strike. Rambova later claimed all of these poems were received from spirit guides via automatic writing. Whether one believes or not, "Day Dreams" makes for an interesting read for movie buffs, Rudolph Valentino fans and Spiritualists alike. Included in this rare reprint is a foreword by Rudolph Valentino and George Ullman biographer Evelyn Zumaya.
