Miss Gray, while no Bernhardt, holds up her end of the acting capably enough. Go to Full Review Mordaunt Hall New York Times 06/10/2020
The film transcription of Aloma of the South Seas, fails to stir up much interest because it lacks the essence of suspense and true dramatic quality. Go to Full Review Fred Schader Variety 06/09/2020
