La Peau de chagrin
Slave of Desire (originally titled The Magic Skin) is a 1923 American silent drama film directed by George D. Baker, produced and distributed by Goldwyn Pictures. It was based on the novel "La Peau de chagrin" by Honoré de Balzac, first published in 1831. The Balzac novel had previously been filmed in 1909 as "The Wild Ass's Skin", which was more faithful to the original novel.
