   Is the Sheik a good movie?

   • Just consider the year please. To this day I am amazed. The Sheik is solidly acted by Rudolph Valentino, it has some romantic scenes, it looks fine and is an interesting and even charming movie, but it is too typical in its storyline and too predictable to be enjoyed more.

   Where was the Sheik filmed?

   • The Sheik was shot on location in the Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, where the desert dunes were a good stand-in for Northern Africa–or its romanticized version. The studio set up two large camps full of extras, making the production feel like a large-scale desert expedition.

   Is the Sheik an example of early 20th century camp?

   • And, of course, The Sheik is also a darn good example of early 20th century camp. After his breakout role as the fiery gaucho Julio in The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (1921), oddly enough, Valentino’s subsequent roles weren’t exactly capitalizing on his talent.

    Aug 18, 2022 · One of the great sensations of the early 1920s screen, The Sheik (1921) is the kind of silent film that’s almost too easy to mock: it’s melodramatic, it’s cheesy, it’s based on a florid romance novel, and it features plenty of that exaggerated acting people always think was common back then (there was plenty of naturalistic acting, I promise…!).
