Needs ID - updated

Can someone ID the MOVIE for this photo. It's Eleanor Parker alright but someone said it's for  VALLEY OF THE KINGS. I haven't seen it but that movie, though set in Egypt, takes place in contemporary settings, not 2000 years ago. It's probably just promo or test shots. It's a shame she never appeared in an Egyptian PEPLUM because she looked great here.

In August 1954 Eleanor was to have the title role in MGM's The Reign of Cleopatra*, however there is no evidence the film was ever made. The photo is possibly from a test shoot, see also: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CfOLIeYWsAAcKyQ.jpg
