Salome Demarkable scenes from Nazimova's latest **■ production, which is a film version of the play by Oscar Wilde. Costumes and settings for the picture were suggested by the drawings by Aubrey Beardsley, and the production is on Futuristic lines. The famous Dance of the Seven Veils is one of the features of the film, the supporting cast for which includes Nigel de Brulier and Mitchell Lewis. Four girls, clad in mysterious black robes, take part in the dance ; and music is provided by six weirdly misshapen dwarf figures playing various instruments. These are taken straight from the Beardsley art. The effect of the silvery costumes and settings was enhanced by the use of gold paint on the finger nails and eyelids of the dancers.
