Boy on a Dolphin (1957)

Directed by Jean Negulesco
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Fox Movie Channel)

Sophia Loren is a young Greek woman who discovers a sunken statue while diving for sponges. She convinces American archaeologist Alan Ladd to pay her for it's location, but has a counter offer from another American who wants to sneak it out of the country. It's all an excuse for gratuitous shots of Sophia skin diving in wet clothes or tied up on deck. Wonderful widescreen cinematography of the Greek Isles, both above and under water.
