Probably "disappeared" some time in the 1990's ."Sexy dance numbers" were cosidered "de riguer" in the era of the the swords and sandals epics of the 1950's -1960's. Since Ludmilla was a famous ballerina, I guess they thought it was a "no brainer" to have her do her thing under some dranmatic pretext. She was supposed to be a "passionate princess' and under no account was she going to do "Swan Lake" . So the reason for the cut remains a mystery. Anyway, I would rather have had Rita Gam do an alternative "pagan" dance number instead, but sadly that was not to be. Fortunately, neither Chandler nor Palance danced during the making of this motion picture -and no animals were harmed-that we know of!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7460884202508888004.post-29005322662476705632017-05-09T11:37:36.040-04:002017-05-09T11:37:36.040-04:00The film was shown on UK TV that had this 'los...The film was shown on UK TV that had this 'lost' dance sequence, many years ago around 1990. I had a poor VHS copy of it but that is long gone. So I am not sure about the copywright issues. Would love a full copy of this underrated movie! If anyone has a copy, please let me know.Paul BBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7460884202508888004.post-72536546790536732462012-08-21T01:30:58.051-04:002012-08-21T01:30:58.051-04:00It is good that this scene (very uncharacteristic ...It is good that this scene (very uncharacteristic to the Princess in the film) was edited out.Palnoreply@blogger.com
