Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesThis film is often cited as a direct inspiration for the Indiana Jones franchise of films, with many of the scenes in "Secret of the Incas" bearing a striking resemblance in tone and structure to scenes in "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Throughout the film, the main character, Harry Steele, can be seen wearing the "Indiana Jones" outfit - brown leather jacket, fedora, tan trousers, and revolver.
- PatzerRegarding Machu Picchu, the famous Incan ruins in Peru, Charlton Heston's character, Harry Steele, tells Elena, "It's an ancient city of the Incas. It's been lost for over a thousand years". In reality, Machu Picchu was built around 1450, and rediscovered in the early 1900's, making it "lost" for a bit less than 500 years.

Never really gets going
'Secret of the Incas' never really gets going, for me.
I adore that it was filmed on location in Peru, it gives us some beautiful shots of the South American country; most notably of Machu Picchu. That's where the greatness ends though. It isn't a poor film by any means, but nothing else springs to mind in a positive manner about it.
The cast are solid if a little mundane. Charlton Heston does a fine job in the lead role as Harry, with Thomas Mitchell supporting competently. The plot execution is what lets this down in my opinion, as it's an attractive premise but never feels like the majestic adventure that it should be.
