Salome (UK, 1907) is a short film (silent, B&W) produced by Gaumont British Picture Corporation.
Abstract
Based on the Biblical story.
"The Gaumont studio has made an exceptional film of this subject which is dignified in action, stately in its progress and conforms with the unities in time, place and action, all of the actors fit the parts. The climax is reached in the dance, which is made as inoffensive as possible. The dancer does not throw off any veils or other garments, and the head of John the Baptist appears but a very short period at the end of the film."--The Moving Picture World (June 1907).
Cast
Unknown.
Production
Produced and released in the United Kingdom (1907).
