Legend of the Lost (1957)
Director: Henry Hathaway
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A lost-city desert yarn of near-classic lunacy, flecked with notions of (Christian) faith and (cinematic) illusion, as religious nut Brazzi, pragmatic guide Wayne, and wavering sinner Loren investigate mirages both Saharan and psychological. As writer Ben Hecht has Wayne put it, 'A couple of men and a dame are a strain on any civilisation.'Author: PT
