The star-crossed desert romance of a cloistered woman and a renegade monk.
Star-cast
melodrama in an Oriental setting is slow-going, and the romance is
quite absurd, but it's all photographed in glorious color and beautiful
settings.
Halliwell**: "Arty old-fashioned romantic star vehicle; great to look at, and marking a genuine advance in colour photography, but dramatically a bit of a drag."
Maltin**: "Flagrantly silly romance...full of ripe dialogue, beauty shots of Marlene...and some wonderful Technicolor scenery...It just isn't very good."
