Shira's Feedback |
The costume is definitely a belly
dancing costume, but the dancing is more like modern dance. |
Yul Brynner (with hair) and Gina Lollobrigida star in this
story loosely inspired by the Biblical book 1 Kings. About an
hour and 26 minutes into the story, Solomon agrees to let the
Queen of Sheba and her people hold a festival dedicated to their
goddess of love. While leading the festival, the queen casts
aside her robe to reveal a belly dancing costume complete with
navel jewel required by the Hayes Code, and begins to dance while
her people do a hypnotic dance around her. Couples start coupling
in the background, and Solomon can't resist joining the orgy.
