Salomé Ratings & Reviews
Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)
Marya E. Gates
One of the earliest true art films made in Hollywood and one of its queerest.
Exhibitor's Trade Review
George T. Pardy
The result is a photoplay of great individuality, and of distinct originality, which are reflected in costume and setting.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
A showcase for stage legend Alla Nazimova.
PopMatters
Michael Barrett
Adapting Oscar Wilde's controversial play, Salomé models itself on Aubrey Beardsley's illustrations and adds costumes by Natacha Rambova, soon to be Mrs. Rudolph Valentino.
LIFE
Robert E. Sherwood
The persons responsible for Salomé deserve the whole- souled gratitude of everyone who believes in the possibilities of the movies as an art. Nazimova, of course, is the first.
The New Republic
Thomas Craven
So long as the debasement of literary and artistic ideas continues to fill the theatres, just so long will the moving picture remain at its low and insufferable stage of vulgarity.
Cine-Mundial
Francisco J. Ariza
As the reader has noticed, this film bores me. [Full Review in Spanish]
Chicago Reader
Ted Shen
Though the direction is attributed to Charles Bryant, the auteur was clearly Nazimova, with Natacha Rambova patterning the set and costumes after the Aubrey Beardsley illustrations that accompanied one edition of the play.
New York Times
NYT Staff
You see an exceedingly tame and not remarkably graceful performance that Herod wouldn't have given standing room in his kingdom for.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The storytelling is none to thrilling but there's much to gloat over the costumes, sets, lighting and camerawork.
Variety
Variety Staff
Picturesquely it is very pretty as to lightings, setting and photography, but there ends about all that can be said in praise.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Most of the movie is a big buildup to Salomé's dance, basically an absurd little gavotte despite the presence of a clownishly excited Herod and a squad of capering dwarfs.
