this one is my favourite childhood movie im now 28.
my 2nd favourite is 7th voyage of sinbad.
By the way does any1 know the name of this movie where the magician points at his arm and starts to direct his arm with his wand as it becomes longer and longer till he reaches the keys? (i think). been typing nonsense on google just to find that movie
@esjayay I Believe the movie you are looking for is "Captain Sinbad" another movie i remember from my younger days, thanks for reminding me of it, i have the VHS around here somewhere
Does this movie have this conjuring up of the genie " from the land beyond , beyond . Through the times of hope and fear . I bid you genie , now appear !!! "
CORRECTION: There are three versions of "The Thief of Baghdad" available at Amazon.com. The original is the Classic 1924 release with Douglas Fairbanks and the more familiar version which was released in 1941. I purchased mine for $15.
I've just watched this film a while ago. It's amazing how much of this film was used in the Alladin film by Disney. The evil wizard Jaffar, the name Abu, the magic carpet and even the Genie. Then again, those were both classic Arabic fairytales.
Conrad Veidt had the kind of voice and inflection that after less than a sentence of dialogue you knew what side he was on - the side that doesn't quite make it to the end of the movie. What a great actor!
@errolfan Conrad Veidt Portrayal In Casa Blanca Same. It Took Someone Like"MAD DOG EARL" To Shoot Him.... Great Actor. There's A Close Tie Between The Villains Of Yesteryear n Today. I Think.
this was the first movie to use a green screen

Mr. Conrad Veidt is perfection and a genius! He totally becomes his character.

I still love this movie. June Duprez is such a fox, and Conrad Veidt such an evil villain.
When I was a kid, the storm scene at sea scared me silly. I loved the giant spider, though. Go figure!
