Salomé (1922) watch online

Salomé is a 1922 American silent drama film directed by Charles Bryant. The film stars Alla Nazimova, Mitchell Lewis, Rose Dione, Earl Schenck, Arthur Jasmine, Nigel De Brulier, Frederick Peters and Louis Dumar.

It is an adaptation of the 1891 Oscar Wilde play of the same name. The play itself is a loose retelling of the biblical story of King Herod and his execution of John the Baptist at the request of Herod's stepdaughter, Salomé, whom he lusts after. The film has often been cited as one of the first art films of the United States, and has also been described as a cult classic of queer cinema.
