Kuvaus
Englantilainen VHS-julkaisu, ei suomitekstejä.
Rudolph Valentino plays two roles in this his final film. A young prince falls in love with a dancing girl. The Hollywood critic Louella Parsons said on its release, 'The very picture for which the world's wife, mother and daughter have been waiting!'
One of the most popular films from the silent era, director George Fitzmaurice s The Son of the Sheik stars Rudolph Valentino who gives perhaps the finest performance of his career. Unfortunately, it would be his last, he died suddenly at the age of 31, just days before the film s release.
In this visually intoxicating sequel to Valentino's career-defining film The Sheik, the silent screen's greatest lover portrays a cultured yet untamed young man who is lured into a thieves trap by a beautiful dancer, Yasmin (Vilma Banky). After escaping, he kidnaps the damsel and holds her captive in his desert lair, dressing her in Arabian finery and threatening to unleash his violent passion upon her. Exotic romance saturates every frame of this Orientalist epic; its sadomasochistic fantasies are acted out against the lavish set design of William Cameron Menzies (The Thief of Bagdad) and lushly photographed by George Barnes (Sadie Thompson).
Kasetti ja kotelo hyväkuntoiset (lähes kuin uudet). Ostaja maksaa postituskulut 6 euroa, ja jos ostat useampia kohteita niin 7 euron postikuluilla saat niin paljon elokuvia (DVD, BR, VHS jne) kuin jaksat huutaa!
