LAND OF THE PHARAOHS (1955) I watched last night and was reminded what a treat it is!   JACK HAWKINS is awesome and JOAN COLLINS gets more evil each time I look at it!  DEWEY MARTIN passed away in 2018 at 95 and looks quite fit and 50s hair handsome.  JAMES ROBERTSON is quite noble and perfectly English civilized!  Two films last night (the other was HEATHERS) where the audience really wants the Queen B to get her comeuppance.  And she gets it BUT GOOD!

If you want to view paradise . . . simply look around and view it!

I can think of way worse punishments than being entombed alive with Dame Joan 😉🥰
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Except it's the whining scheming Nellifer.  It won't be pretty.

Ehhhh, starvation, dehydration, possible asphyxiation.... Not worth it.
They will come back, come back again, As long as the red earth rolls. He never wasted a leaf or a tree. Do you think he would squander souls?" ― Ruyard Kipling

We all come from the goddess and to her we shall return, like a drop of rain flowing to the ocean.

I actually saw this long ago on an end of the dial UHF station in Maine late one night and I thought at first it was a comedy, to be honest, not bad but campy. There was a scene I remember where Joan Collins was being shown the treasure reserved for the pharaoh's burial (?), and the camera focused in for around three seconds on Collins' eyes bugging out of her skull at the sight of it. Clearly she was a material girl....
What does not kill me makes me stranger.
