Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Prodigal
A real extravaganza with beautiful sets and lots of extras. Beautiful Lana Turner at her best. This is Hollywood at it's best. A lot of the costars that you regognize from the time. Lana, in her costumnes is a sight to behold. All the stff that makes this type of movie great. Slaves building temples, human sacrafice, lavish temples, a handsome leading man (Edmund Purdom)who is enslaved after faling hopelessly in love with Lana, the high Priestess, then rises to take down the sacraligious kingdom. ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Hollywood's Golden Trash: Kitsh in full force
This movie is neither historical nor Biblical. It barely relates to a story of a prodigal son in the New Testament and the rest is Hollywood at its best producing cheap thrills, fantasy sets, and innocuous dialogue.
If you are looking for some delicious trash, soft-porn, hilarious accidental comedy, this is it. This movie has no relation whatsoever with the ancient goddess Astarte, the iconography is wrong, the rites also, the depiction of Baal is also mistaken, the costumes completely off, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Five Stars of Crap!
I haven't much to say about this movie, actually. What can be said of another swords-and-sandals Hollywood Biblical epic, starring the pagan goddess of Camp herself, Lana Turner? The $5,000,000 spent on it practically thrusts it's way out at you, along with the bosum of the plasticine Miss Turner. It is a passable fleshing-out (no pun, etc.)of Christ's parable, though that isn't, for me, it's primary appeal--I've read a bit of Biblical/historical/theological/philosophical exegesis(hope that doesn't ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The best showcase ever equipped for Turner excellent figure...
Lana Turner was pure magic, emotion and sensation in her long walk through the temple of love... And "The Prodigal" will remain the best showcase ever equipped for her excellent figure... The film is M.G.M.'s entry in the CinemaScope Bible race...

Lana was cast as Samarra, the lightly-clad temptress who incited history's first juvenile delinquent to leave home...

The film was based on the Biblical story of the prodigal son as told by St. Luke in Chapter XV of his gospels... ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - CLASSIC FILM
GREAT FILM WITH LANA TURNER. THE STORY IS DURING THE BIBLICAL TIME PERIOD, AND THE CONTRAST OF CHRISTIAN & HEATHENS. A CLASSIC FILM STYLE THAT WAS POPULAR WITH THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, STORY OF JESUS, THE STORY OF RUTH, AND OTHERS.
