The Egyptian (1954), Edmund Purdom, Bella Darvi
with Jean Simmons, Victor Mature, Gene Tierney
This segment: Scenes with Gene Tierney.
This is very loosely based on The Story of Sinuhe, which does include references to Aten but was written many centuries before the 18th
dynasty.
Sets, costumes, and props from this film were bought and re-used by Cecil B. DeMille for The Ten Commandments. As the events in that story take place seventy years after those in The Egyptian, this re-use creates an unintended sense of continuity. The commentary track on the Ten Commandments DVD points out many of these re-uses. Only two actors, Mimi Gibson and John Carradine, and a handful of extras, appeared in both pictures.
The Prince Aly Khan was a consultant during filming, he was engaged to Gene Tierney.

Definately under-rated
A classic epic
Ustinov is great in this movie
Victor Mature does his job,
And Tierney cold and brilliant
Set in Epypt in a true historical period
Culminating in a mexican stand-off style poisoning scene.
This is one of my favorite ever movies
sadly very hard to find.
Put more clips on
The whole movie if you have to
It's worth it
What a collaboration!
