Title: If You Haven't Visited Egypt, You'll Want To After Seeing This Movie!
Review: Ever since my first visit to Egypt last fall, I've been on the lookout for all things Egyptian. Had a vague recollection of a book by Robin Cook and borrowed it from my local library. Then decided to check out Amazon.com for a movie and voila! Just bought the video & watched it this weekend. IT IS BETTER THAN THE BOOK!! Probably because the movie is a visual feast. Also, the heroine is less pathetic than in the book and there's no jerk of a boyfriend to cloud things up! I found it interesting to see how dated the male actors looked (hair, clothes) but Lesley Ann Warren was stunning and up-to-date elegant. The movie is a complete treat for those fascinated by ancient Egyptian history and artifacts. And the scenes in the Cairo Museum are marvelous. And the feluccas sailing in the Nile so beautiful and romantic. AND..on and on! Enjoy one and all.
