This film is quite successful.
Greatly started (type of spectacle film) but just not much better than "Cleopatra" from 1963. Also the acting, except for Vivien Leigh and Claude Rains, was not really good. For the rest also a bit tame every now and then. This one from 45 is just not as beautiful as the film from 63. For the rest the sets, clothing, setting and how it is all started, are not bad. So a small 3.0.

a theatrical talkie that never manages to become interesting, theatrical and boring with beautiful sets, that's for sure.
It is clearly not an action or spectacle film, more of a play.
