About the film

The Patriot is a 1928 American semi-biographical sound part-talkie film that was directed by Ernst Lubitsch and released by Paramount Pictures. This was Paramount's first feature with spoken dialogue. It also had synchronized music and sound effects, depicting the story of Emperor Paul I of Russia. The plot revolves around Count Pahlen's plot to remove the mad Tsar from the throne, eventually leading to the Tsar's death. The film stars Emil Jannings, Florence Vidor, and Lewis Stone. The film won the Academy Award for Best Writing and was nominated in several other categories. However, only fragments of the film remain, with no complete copy found to date.
