Queen of the Sea
1918Queen of the Sea is a 1918 American silent fantasy film released by Fox Film Corporation that was directed by John G. Adolfi and starred Australian swimmer Annette Kellerman. This film is presumed to be lost.[1]
As described in the trade magazine Exhibitors Herald:
Queen of the Sea followed Fox's big budget picture A Daughter of the Gods, another fantasy spectacle designed around Annette Kellerman and her aquatic abilities. Kellerman was well known for stunt dives; at least one high dive was incorporated in the plot of Queen as well as a tight-rope walk, both executed by Kellerman herself.[3] After Queen of the Sea Kellerman would only make two more major motion pictures.[4]
Cast and crew spent two months in 1917 filming on Mount Desert Island in Maine;[5] additional exterior shots were filmed in Bermuda, Jamaica, Florida, Mexico, and California.[6]
Panchromatic film, which provided superior tonal quality but had a problematically short shelf life, was first used in motion pictures for some of the exterior shots on Queen of the Sea.[7]
