IN LONDON. London Chronicle. April 30, 1925 -"I know of no other film that can compare with this one both from the standpoint of artistic settings and drumatic artistry. 'Siegfried of "The Nibelungs" is not only the best- alm ever produced, but it also marks an epoch in the history of the SCIEOD, lifting it to new heights, while At the same time it places the mapy so-called masterpieces where they belong."
London Sunday News, May 4, 1925 -with The Nibelungs," Germany can now be ranked as the first film producing country in the world. The critics of this country have all been very deeply impressed by this picture, and the critic we have with us told. me after seeing the picture: The scene in the woods is the most beautiful yet see on a screen. Two weeks ago, when I wrote about this pieture Isaid it was the best drama ever made. After seeing it the second time.
I amend this statement by.. maying that it is the ONLY drama ever produced."

London Daily Mail, April 30, 1925-Siegfried, in terms of art is the zenith of screen ambition. It raises this art to 'new heights. It is not any of the so-called "Ring" pro dectious. In the picture we see, the legenda embodied in medieval poems and perpetuated through the years by tradition."
London Daily News, April 30, 1925- A thunderous applause, wel- comed the screening of the marvelous beautiful scenes of Seigfried."

London Evening Standard, May 4, 1925-The Nibelongs is a mighty picture the bringing of a nation to birth-the making and breaking of the commandments were elementary feats by comparison. Nothing like it has ever been conceived, much less achieved:"
Londos Sat, April 30, 1925 Siegfried's fight with the dragon will probably be the most discussed scope. Three times daring the fight last night the audience of ten thousand broke into applause."

The picturisation of the Nibelungen and Norse angas is a worthy accom- plishment. UFA has made a film that stands distinctive and in a class by itself, and in addition, makes an interesting and entertaining screen play. Paul Richter as Siegfried " is as a Greek god.
Louvella Parsons—American.
"Siegfried is the most impressive, mest dignified picture we have ever seen. It is a shiny cloak of medioral splendour. It is the Nerse sagas you read about in childhood come to ife.

Certainly the picture is a triumph and answers definitely in the affirmative the of discussed ques- tion as to whether the cinema art may effectively be employed to recreate the impressive grandeur of classic opera.
