Rarely has there been so spontaneous an ovation given by the tremendous throngs that blocked sidewalks, defying cold and rain, to see the great continental artist, Pola Negri, in the spectacular production of Lubitsch, creator of Passion' '
AN EXCEPTIONAL PICTURE
" Ernest Lubitsch is the superior of most directors anywhere and Pola Negri is one of the few real players of the screen who can make a character live. All the characters are vivid in their parts. A fiery story of Eastern adventure and intrigue. Rich entertainment — highly colored romance. In acting, direction and setting it is exceptional — one of the year's best pictures." — A^ew York Times. VITAL— FULL OF FIRE
" The vital Pola Negri gives it fire. One sits at attention. It has fine intelligence in its character drawing and a great deal of humor. At times it is electrical in its fervor — a fine touch." — New York Journal.
POLA NEGRI ALLURING
" Pola Negri is the most alluring personage developed on the European screen — a winsome figure who does a dance in fascinating diaphanous draperies. The mounting is elaborate." — New York Herald. A COLOSSAL PRODUCTION
" Tense and colorful drama with that marvelous actress, Pola Negri. Well nigh perfect — a colossal production, filled with action and suspense and the most quaintly humorous touches. Lubitsch, the director, is a wizard. There is no other artist on the screen so great as Pola Negri. The rest of the cast is perfect. So are the settings and mob scenes." — New York Tribune.
A DECIDED NOVELTY
" The acting is brilliant, the settings and atmosphere fascinating, and the technique fine and sure. The film is a decided novelty. Pola Negri is full of fire and exquisitely graceful. Lubitsch's work is splendid." — New York Telegraph.
