    Duke's error in thinking that they had made a good picture, proved a disaster and lost money. No one could overcome the weakness of a contrived script, that tried to combine sex, sand and sway, but ended up a lethargic treasure hunt!
    It would probably be easier walking across the Sahara Desert, than watching this film
    RATING 2/10

    I don't know . . . I kind of enjoyed this movie. Maybe there is an error in my thinking, too :rolleyes:. In the eyes of one observer, it was kind of like a "laid-back Indiana Jones adventure."


    According to Fred Landesman's book, the studio came out ahead by $500K, which in 1957 was an appreciable amount of money.


    And I can't speak for anybody but myself, but watching Sophia Loren would be MUCH easier than walking across the Sahara Desert :jump::jump: . . . :lol:.
