Awesome costuming, subverted history or epic fail? A The Egyptian (1954) review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- Arwen reviews "The Egyptian" 1954, starring Jean Simmons and Peter Ustinov amongst others. Did it stand the test of time? How good was the book the film is based on? What can go wrong in book to film adaptations? Could the actors save this movie? What did the Hays Code have to do with it? Dare we touch religion? If so, which one?! And stick around for a history lesson or two about ancient Egypt.
