Wiki.
(For the 1929 talkie see The Isle of Lost Ships (1929 film))
The Isle of Lost Ships is a 1923 American silent adventure/melodrama film produced and directed by Maurice Tourneur. It was distributed by Associated First National Pictures. The film is based on the novel The Isle of Dead Ships written by Crittenden Marriott around 1909. In 1929, director Irvin Willat, re-filmed the story.
Maurice Tourneur himself also created a different film with a similar theme called The Ship of Lost Souls in 1929, featuring the young German actress, Marlene Dietrich in the cast.
The 1923 version of the film is believed to be lost, and no longer available.
