Whilst watching this, I couldn't help wonder if

Whilst watching this, I couldn't help wonder if Tab Hunter would have made a decent Lawrence of Arabia? He certainly has the looks in his white garb! Sadly though, as an actor his talents don't stretch a great deal further in this amiable fantasy adventure. He has to beat three suitors and a manipulative vizier to win the hand of the Princess "Jamila" (Rossana Podestá). Luckily, he has three genies to help him out as he seeks the golden arrow that will prove his identity as the heir to the kingdom and a worthy husband for the princess. The production is pretty basic, but this is still a colourful romp with plenty of action, bows and arrows, magic carpetry and Hunter has a distinct glint in his eye - especially when talking to people who are clearly going to be superimposed by the visual effects people later! At least they all went to Egypt to film the exteriors, and there is plenty of light-hearted action taking us to the inevitable - and really quite entertaining - battle at the end. I quite enjoyed this.

Italian B

Various princely suitors arrive in Damascus to win the hand of princess Jamila. Hassan (Tab Hunter) claims to be the Prince of the Islands of Flame. Each suitor is tasked with shooting a bow and arrow. Hassan is able to shoot The Golden Arrow, but he is called out on his lie. He and his men are bandits. They kidnap the princess.

It's an Italian sword and sandal adventure B-movie. It's lower grade B-movie and Tab Hunter is the lead. The dialogue is stiff and seems to be dubbed. This could be camp if one is willing to have some fun with it. It certainly has that potential. I have a slightly difficult time with the grinding boredom of it all.
