It is not faithful to the bible, but amazing otherwise.
The performance of Amouk Aimee (Queen Bera) and Stanley Baker(Asthorath) is imposing and quite delightful. Evil but lovable at the same time.
Some people complain that it wasnt about naked lust , and explicit orgies were not shown at all. Really? It was filmed in 1961, a naked picture would have been a scandal!
Instead , the scenes are seductive, filled with tasteful naughtiness that leave everything to some subtle imagination. Mitsuko Takara's dance moves are right on target and she is as seductive as beautiful.
My favorite performances came from Queen Bera and Ildith (Pier Angeli). They steal the show with their stunning beauty and performances. Stewart Grange is a bit dissapointing as Lot. And yes, there are some cheesy moments in the film.
Finally, Miklos Rosza shows why he was the master of musical performances. The soundtrack is worth everything he promises.
The movie is worth every detail. However, it cant be watched with a modern perspective.
