Rating: 2/4 -- Just another contract-player time-killer.

Rating: B -- More a collection of character vignettes than a full-blown story, Garden Party nonetheless shows as much promise for its makers as it gives to its characters. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Exotic romance in early three-strip Technicolor with great stars.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

It has moments of lavish beauty, both the African scenery and Miss Dietrich lending themselves to the technicolor process with high pictorial effect. Full Review

Rating: 1.5/4 -- It's familiar stuff if you've sampled the vast body of work devoted to LA-dammerung. Full Review

Rating: C -- Starring Dietrich and Charles Boyer, this disappointing third version of the popular 1904 novel, is mostly known for its use of three-color Technicolor, which won an Oscar. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/4 -- Nothing new in writer-director Jason Freeland's Garden Party, then, nor anything particularly insightful about the mercenary business of getting by and ahead out here.

Product Description:

In THE GARDEN OF ALLAH, Domini, a society girl (Marlene Dietrich) mourning the death of her father, travels to the Sahara. There she finds romance with Boris, a monk (Charles Boyer) who has recently abandoned the monastic life but remains torn between religious devotion and worldly desire, particularly desire for the exceptionally alluring Domini. Dietrich was photographed so beautifully that the cameramen won special Oscars for this early Technicolor film.
