Rudolph Maté’s THE PRINCE WHO WAS A THIEF
(1951, 88 min)
A prince in disguise plots to rob a royal treasury, and perhaps, usurp the pretender to his throne in 13th century Tangiers. First, he must enlist the help of Tina, a supple contortionist, able slither into the sultan’s stronghold. Although there is a sultry evil princess with Bettie Page bangs, along with fiery redheaded Tina (teenaged Piper Laurie) the camera’s gaze lingers longest on the delectable shirtless Tony Curtis, (Bronx accent intact) in his first leading role. Vaguely based on a fanciful tale by 19th century American realist writer Theodore Dreiser, this vividly Technicolor Arabian Nights frolic is ridiculous fun.
