Java Head is a 1923 American silent romantic drama film directed by George Melford and starring Leatrice Joy, Jacqueline Logan, Frederick Strong, Alan Roscoe, and Betty Bronson in a bit part.

Java Head was remade in a 1934 British sound film starring Anna May Wong which was released by Associated Talking Pictures.

As described in a film magazine,[2] during the late 1840s wealthy retired sea captain Jeremy Ammidon (Strong) lives with his children and grandchildren in a house known as "Java Head" in Salem, Massachusetts.

Gerrit Ammidon (Roscoe), skipper of the Nautilus in its oriental trade, loves Nettie Vollar (Logan), a granddaughter of Barzil Dunsack (Fawcett), an enemy of Jeremy.

Nettie learns that Gerrit still loves her and is visited by Taou, who then takes an overdose of opium and dies.
