The Desert Song (1953)


Warner Bros.
Directed by Bruce Humberstone
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(VHS, Warner)
(Turner Classic Movies)

Hollywood hokum about a mild mannered archaeologist who moonlights as a Robin Hood of the desert. He tutors lovely Kathryn Grayson as the professor but she falls in love with his other personality after being kidnapped. The hapless French Legionnaires come to her rescue. Some of the songs are well done, even if the lip synching isn't always convincing.
