The Queen of Sparta
1931 film
- 22 February 1931 (1931-02-22)
The Queen of Sparta (Italian:La regina di Sparta) is a 1931 film directed by Manfred Noa and starring Antonio Moray, Viola LaRosa and Franco Faris. The film was made by the low-budget Itala Film in Hollywood, primarily for release in Italian-speaking inhabitants of the United States. Shot as a silent with sound added later, it re-used footage from Noa's 1924 film Helen of Troy.[1]
Its complex background has led to it being classified variously as an American, German or Italian film.
