Your Friend(1927)

Original title: Ваша знакомая

Khokhlova, a young female Moscow reporter, falls in love with factory manager Petrovsky. To her he's the epitome of manliness–virile, decisive, strong-minded. Conversely, she rejects the sensitive, diffident editor Vasilchikov, who's in love with her, as unmanly. Her infatuation affects her work, and she is fired.
