| Fairbanks is Amazing!
Thief of Bagdad movie Douglas Fairbanks is very fit and full of swagger as he struts his way through this wonderful fantasy. He is a thief who falls in love with a princess. The only way he can win her hand is to enter a contest. The one who brings the rarest gift wins her over. His competition are some royal suitors from all parts of Arabia and the East. I won't reveal any more of the plot. This is a fantastic movie! The special effects are mind-blowing! A Magic Rope. A Defile in the Mountains. A Valley of Fire. A Flying Carpet. The Valley of Monsters. A Winged Horse. An amazing underwater scene with Fairbanks slaying a giant creature and facing temptation from Mermaids. Did I mention The Cloak of Invisibilty? And more!! This movie truly is worth watching. Two and one half hours of bewilderment and excitemnet. One of the most expensive silent movies ever made with massive sets and a great supporting cast. I'm sure you will enjoy it. I am recommending the Kino Video version. I have also seen a much poorer quality and cheaper version and can't recommend it. The clarity and sound differences between the two are staggering!
