The Secret Hour is a lost[1] 1928 silent film romance drama directed by Rowland V. Lee and starring Pola Negri. A sound version was released during the latter half of 1928. While the sound version of the film had no audible dialog, it featured a synchronized musical score with sound effects using both the sound-on-disc and sound-on-film process. It is based on the 1924 Broadway play, They Knew What They Wanted by Sidney Howard.[2] It was produced by Paramount Famous Lasky Corporation and distributed through Paramount Pictures.[3][4]

In 1956, the film entered the public domain in the United States because the claimants did not renew its copyright registration in the 28th year after publication.[5]
