I saw this film when I was 17 years old and fell in love with Valentino AKA Anthoney Dexter. Eleanor Parker was beautiful with such sad eyes. The Tango Dances were very well done, and the re-made scenes from the old movies like The Sheik were fun to watch. Patricia Medina was a love and very funny. She was the master of low key subtle humor IE the comment about Valentino's Gaze melting the pounds off. Anthony Dexter had Rudy's gaze down pat. I've seen some of the original Valentino movies. If they can still be preserved; why oh why can't the 1951 film be put on video or DVD? I once had it on Beta, wish I'd kept it. Further,any movie with Otto Kruger has class. DL
