Star
Of India (1954)
Synopsis: Virtually
unwatchable swashbuckler, with Cornel Wilde as the French nobleman who,
stripped of his estates, starts a search for a priceless jewel. Jean Wallace
isn't stripped of anything but tags along anyway.
Herbert Lom hisses
like a panto villain and seems to have an unhealthy relationship with his
Siamese cats, but this effort looks cheap. Director Arthur Lubin best
known for the Claude Rains Phantom of the Opera doesn't help matters
with slow pacing.
Cast: Cornel Wilde, Jean
Wallace Runtime: 92 min
