Madame Du Barry or Du Barry is a 1917 American silent historical drama film directed by J. Gordon Edwards and starring Theda Bara. The film is based on the French novel Memoirs dun mdecin by Alexandre Dumas.
Like many American films of the time, Madame Du Barry was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors required a cut of Madame Du Barry lying on the guillotine and the closeup of the blade.This film is now considered to be a lost film. Many of Theda Baras films were destroyed in the 1937 Fox Studios vault fire. ........
