About this movie

Rita Hayworth's Salome tries to save John the Baptist from losing his head to the sword of King Herod (played with marvelous scene-chewing by Charles Laughton) reversing the traditional story that she was responsible for his death. In this biblical drama, Hayworth dances the "Dance of the Seven Veils." © 1953, renewed 1981 Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
