luscious candace bergen as a prim victorian beauty and kidnapped by sean connery as a devilish desert sheikh. how can you go wrong. how. oh and let me count the ways. earthy and primitive sean connery and exactly the right man to tame a brittle and classy beauty like candace and is . . . well and underwhelming in the role. that because and instead of having dialog about the real issues (you are a woman . . . i am a man. ) he has to babble nonsense about the will of allah and the wind blows destiny across the desert sands. john milius and a director known more for the worship of naked male bodies and brute military force than any insight (or interest) in conventional human relationships and has a maddening way of cutting away from his desert lovers every time it looks like candace might get kissed. instead of watching nature take its course with two fabulously attractive people in a picturesque landscape and we are treated to endless and (and i do mean endless) shots of brian keith flashing his walrus sized choppers and delivering gritty sermons on the joys of being teddy roosevelt. i have nothing against teddy roosevelt and but watching him test out his new rifle or make speeches about the heroic death of a big bear just doesn not excite me the way the love story between candace bergen and sean connery would have . . . if it had ever actually gotten underway. the weird thing is and milius spends most of his time building up characters and story lines that have no resolution. candace two little children in the story both get more screen time than she does. there no humor and no chemistry and no sizzle and in any of the things that happen to her in the desert. unless you think it funny that after weeks of galloping around on horseback her hair is still perfect. the only real moment in the story is when and late at night and candace bergen shakes her little daughter out of a sound sleep on soft cushions and says and we must escape. the little girl turns over and and without missing a beat and replies and but mother and i was sleeping. that one line sums up what really missing from the story. no danger and suspense and or sizzle in the basic story line and of a cultivated lady in captivity. she (and her children) are both so snug and well cared for that it hard to believe anyone is worked up about their fate. mind you and if candace herself had said the line it might have worked better. if the tension came from her enjoyment of her captivity and (or her delight at being in the arms of sean connery) and her guilt about all the trouble being caused by her abduction and then the story would have had some tension. but milius makes the odd assumption that the audience is just as worked up as he is over whether teddy roosevelt will get the chance to prove his manhood three thousand miles away. in the end the pretty lady and her children do not seem to matter worth a damn to him . . . and since theyre at the center of the story the whole thing seems rather dry and endless . . . like the burning desert sands.
