The Green Goddess is a 1930 American pre-Code adventure film directed by Alfred E. Green. It was a remake of the 1923 silent film, which was in turn based on the play of the same name by William Archer. It was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures using their new Vitaphone sound system, and adapted by Julien Josephson. The film was copyrighted on September 7, 1929 and is therefore in the public domain.

Production

The Green Goddess was filmed and copyrighted in 1929 and completed before Disraeli (1929) but was held out of release until later at the request of George Arliss because he felt that Disraeli was a better vehicle for his sound debut.

The Green Goddess first was adapted for cinema in 1923. Produced by Distinctive Productions, it was directed by Sidney Olcott and played by George Arliss, Alice Joyce and Jetta Goudal.
