Burning Sands is a 1922 American silent drama film directed by George Melford and written by Olga Printzlau and Waldemar Young based upon the novel of the same name by Arthur Weigall. The film stars Wanda Hawley, Milton Sills, Louise Dresser, Jacqueline Logan, Robert Cain, Fenwick Oliver, and Winter Hall. The film was released on September 3, 1922, by Paramount Pictures.[1][2] It is not known whether the film currently survives,[3] which suggests that it is a lost film.
Paramount hoped the production would enjoy the same success to the similarly-themed hit The Sheik produced by the studio the previous year.[4]
