Barbary Sheep (film)

Barbary Sheep is a 1917 American silent drama film produced by Famous PlayersLasky and distributed through Artcraft Pictures, an affiliate of Paramount Pictures. The film was directed by Maurice Tourneur and stars Elsie Ferguson in her motion picture debut. This picture is said to have George M. Cohan in his film debut as well. It was thought to be a lost film until an 8minute clip was found in the Gosfilmfond archive.

Like many American films of the time, Barbary Sheep was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors ordered cut from Reelthe scene of a vision of the womans murder, from Reelintertitles such as The Arab is faithless and to satisfy his lust, and from Reelthe intertitle The son of the desert, fired by his passion, scornful of a husband who has kept no watch over his own and the vision of the womans murder.
