Ladro di Bagdad,IL(1961)
30 August 2007
I have seen several versions of this story but this one is by far the best in terms of special effects and action.I saw a dubbed version but the film's story line made up for it.Reeves is at his most handsomest but the film is stolen by chap playing the magician.The sets look impressive and very enchanting.The time period is beautifully captured,and Reeves's swashbuckling can be equated with Douglas Fairbanks sr.In those days one could see the whole schedule in a cinema on one ticket and we were so struck with this one that we saw it 3 times every day for one whole week!A good film for all ages and very enjoyable too!Hopefully it will continue to please generations as it encaptured the youngsters in the sixties!
