Her Private Life is a survive[1] 1929 American Pre-Code drama film directed by Alexander Korda and starring Billie Dove, Walter Pidgeon and Holmes Herbert. The plot concerns an English aristocrat who causes a scandal when she divorces her husband and runs off with a young American. Originally, the film considered a lost film.[2] However, as July 2016, according by the Library of Congress, the film was found in Italian archive.
The film was Korda's second sound film, following The Squall. The film is a remake of the 1925 silent film Déclassée by Robert G. Vignola, which was itself an adaptation of a 1919 play of the same name by Zoë Akins.[3]
