Queen of Babylon (1955) starring Rhonda Fleming and Ricardo Montalban. Directed by Carlo Ludovico Bragaglia.

Queen of Babylon is a pre-Hercules Peplum. Made in 1955 but release only in August 1956 in the US, the Italian film is a showcase for two non-Italian actors, the beautiful Rhonda Fleming (Semiramis) and the dashing Ricardo Montalban (Amal).

Even if Ricardo is almost bare-chested throughout the movie which is more appropriate for the PEPLUMz, it's really a romance/romantic adventure and it needed to be uploaded here at SapphoPEPLUM channel. From what I can hear, Ricardo's voice is dubbed but not Rhonda's voice. It's probably because the producers didn't want Amal to have a Mexican accent.

The dubbing of Ricardo Montalban voice is a crime.

The Italian screenwriters well knew that "Amal" was the name of the eponymous founder of the Gothic kingdom. The Goths converted to Christianity and wrote themselves a "Biblical" genealogy, tacking Amal on as the son of the Biblical Nimrod. Later the Goths conquered Italy (Theodoric 493-534 AD), so in this way the Italians could see themselves as warriors against Assyrian tyranny.

Clever! (Nonsense, but clever.)
