It's only short, this, but even at just seventy-five minutes the whole rather dry and stage-bound affair seems to drag! "Ahab" (Eduard Franz) is faithfully following the advice of "Elijah" (John Hoyt) and ruling his kingdom of Israel much as King Solomon might have done. Then, a bit like that King, he falls under the spell of a woman - and a toxic, scheming one at that. "Jezebel" (Paulette Goddard) is a pagan, and rather than allowing him to convert her, she sets out to ensnare him in her multi-theistic culture. As you might expect, fairly swiftly the chagrin really hits the fan! It's one of the more seedy and salacious bible stories, this - but a combination of censors and a poor screenplay really do render this quite dull to watch. Goddard is way off her best and the remainder of the cast (except the camels, perhaps) are equally unremarkable as this legendary Old Testament story is reduced to something distinctly pedestrian. Pity, it could have been much more intriguing and engaging - but as it is, I don't know that I will I bother watching it again.
