Diplomacy is a 1916 silent film drama produced by the Famous Players Film Company and distributed by Paramount Pictures. It is based on the 19th Century stage play Diplomacy by Victorien Sardou, which had enjoyed revivals and road shows for decades. This film stars Doro reprising her Broadway role.[1] The film is now lost with just a fragment, 1 reel, remaining at the Library of Congress.[2][3]
The story was filmed again in 1926 as Diplomacy by Paramount with Blanche Sweet starring and her then husband Marshall Neilan directing.
