      NYT Staff New York Times This second Carmen is an example of excellent motion picture photography, buti ts scenario... is loose and vague, and Miss Bara seems very mechanically seductive when compared, as she must be, with Geraldine Farrar. Jul 25, 2020 Full Review Joshua Lowe Variety It just misses being a masterpiece. Jul 25, 2020 Full Review Age Staff The Age (Australia) Of the acting of Theda Bara this only can be said. She has invested the character with a potency that makes one forget the film part of the business. This Carmen is not the opera Carmen; it is the living realisation of Merimee's original heroine. Jul 25, 2020 Full Review James Warren Currie Chicago Examiner Not a single detail which contributes to realism has been neglected. Thrill follows thrill in endless procession. Sep 4, 2020 Full Review Heywood Broun New York Tribune In fact, the scenes throughout, considered solely as scenes, are handled with much skill, but there is a great deal to be desired in the presentation of the story. Much of the scenario is murky. Jul 25, 2020 Full Review W. Stephen Bush Moving Picture World What I liked best about the production were its settings and its direction. The latter was by no means faultless. Jul 25, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
