Action/Adventure - Thief of Bagdad, The (2 Disc Criterion Collection DVD)

Thief of Bagdad, The (2 Disc Criterion Collection DVD)

Legendary producer Alexander Korda's marvel The Thief of Bagdad (1940), inspired by The Arabian Nights, is one of the most spectacular fantasy films ever made, pioneering in its eye-popping technical wizardry. When Prince Ahmad (John Justin) is blinded and cast out of Bagdad by the nefarious Jaffar (Conrad Veidt), he joins forces with the scrappy thief Abu (the incomparable Sabu) to win back his royal place, as well as the heart of a beautiful princess (June Duprez). With its luscious Technicolor, vivid sets, and unprecedented visual wonders, The Thief of Bagdad has charmed viewers of all ages for decades.

SPECIAL FEATURES:
• Two audio commentaries: one featuring renowned directors Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese, and one with film and music historian Bruce Eder
• New interviews with special-effects experts Ray Harryhausen, Dennis Muren, and Craig Barron about the technical achievements of The Thief of Bagdad
• The Lion Has Wings (1940), Alexander Korda's propaganda film for the English war effort, made during The Thief of Bagdad's production hiatus
• Excerpts from codirector Michael Powell's audio dictations for his autobiography
• Selections of music by composer Miklos Rozsa not used in the final film
