À propos de ce film

The glorious epic style of Cecil B. DeMille is exemplified in this story of the Bible's legendary strongman and the woman who seduces, then betrays him. Victor Mature is the classic Samson, muscular and fearless in his barehanded battle with a lion, his single-handed assault on a thousand Philistine soldiers, his struggle with a giant, and the spectacular Old Testament climax where he pulls down the pagan temple. The enormous cast and the splendor of the production adds to the spectacle. And Delilah, the irresistible lady with the scissors, is brought to seductive life by lovely Hedy Lamarr.

Notes et avis

Hedy Lamarr was breathtaking. Victor Mature definitely fit the part. But I always loved George Sanders. Love his handsome, witty, devious delivery. A very young Angela Lansbury was beautiful.

excellent movie to see with a girl. It's a love story. All good romance movies usually leaves the couple with tears of extreme emotions coupled with high sexual feelings towards each other.

Have loved this movie since childhood one of several Cecil B. De Mille biblical classics!
