His wit was as keen as his executioner's sword — his conduct as refined as his cruelty . . . Dispensing barbaric vengeance in a dinner coat, he flicks a cigarette lighter as he mounts the altar to administer the ancient blood -rites of the fearful Goddess of his savage race . . . And his phonograph furnishes the music for a tribal dance of death! In portraying this amazing blend of civilization and savagery, GEORGE ARLISS in "THE GREEN GODDESS" matches the mastery of his classic performance in "Disraeli", officially voted "the best picture of 1929" by the film critics of the nation. Mere action could never convey the subtle shadings of this strangely fascinating character — despot of a forgotten corner of the world . . . But thanks to Vitaphone the famous voice of Arliss evokes every atom of the consumate cunning, sly guile, and polished perfidy that made "THE GREEN GODDESS" a companion masterpiece to "Disraeli" in Arliss' blazing stage career!
