Calling all Valentino fans. If you haven't already done so, please read his book of poetry or observations-"Day Dreams. " It is simply a lovely written work by the one and only, Rodolfo Pietro Filliberto Raffello Gugliemi d'Valentina d'anguello! 😊
Gay. (I mean, Valentio, not your comment--LOL!) // UPDATE: I just researched. He was married to a woman most of his life! So much for wishful thinking!
You know as MANY x I've watched this ..&;his other awesome films it strikes me just how GOOD of an actor he was ....he was sooo manly " oh Gosh I'm need smelling salts
"For the fist time she had met a man who had failed to bow to her wishes, whom a look has been powerless to transform into a willing slave. In a few hours that had elapsed she had learned fear, a terrible fear that left her sick with apprehension, and she was learning obedience. Obedient now, she forced herself to lift her eyes to his, and the shamed blood surged slowly into her cheeks. His dark passionate eyes burnt into her like a hot flame. His encircling arms were like bands of fire, scorching her. His touch was torture. "Helpless, like a trapped wild thing, she lay against him, panting, trembling, her wide eyes fixed on him, held against their will. Fascinated she could not turn them away and the image of the brown handsome face with its flashing eyes, straight cruel mouth and strong chin seemed seared into her brain. The faint indefinite scent of an uncommon Turkish tobacco clung about him, enveloping her. She had been conscious of the same scent the previous day when he had held her in his arms during the wild ride across the desert." -The Sheik by E.M. Hull
@Barbara Shernoff The book isn't as graphic as contemporary harlequin romance novels but it can be startling. I can see why the book would have been considered scandalous by 1920's standards! The biggest change I noticed is Ahmed's restrained behavior in the film; whereas in the book Ahmed is more arrogant and dominating. I don't think Valentino as Ahmed would have been as iconic/desirable if he came across as more of a brute on screen. As for Diane, I'm glad the book fleshed her character out a bit. We learn that she was an orphan raised by her brother (19 years older) and he couldn't be bothered by going out of his way for her so he raised her in a harsh Spartan lifestyle.
Oh my GOSH!! Is this anexert fr the book??!!!!!......oh im SWOONING!!!! Hey!! Just ordered it fr Barnes & Noble booksellars in my town here.simple thr shipping 2 my house ..!!! Cant wait to get it ....thank you soo much Rose
@@Rosefire ive since received the book!! Did NOT care for it at all ...He is horrible in book...he shoots two beautiful horses....& is mean as mean can be...i didnt care for her either. LOVE the movie..MUCH BETTER IN MY OPINION.......
That picture diss some type of Justice I see this picture few years ago the only thing I wouldn't do back today for her one I wouldn't disrespect the guy specially when you're in a foreign country number two if you ain't one of them places you just not wanted at number three you do he knew what he wanted I would have got off lightly with a pass and most likely will laid him out but otherwise I ain't going through all that torture please she and she wanted to die three times I won't put myself in that position
This is such a WONDERFUL version...its different!.dont understand how i already commented. Awhile bk..?!..)lol dont remember watching this version.......this one has some added " scenes never saw before!!!...plus great clearer picture ...awesome.....
What is it she saw that scared her( Diana)in scene of her in bed next day w Zilah standing raining rose petals down on her , ( how lovely by the way) she woke up smiling comfortable..then realized her situation....ive watched this m several times...since discovering it... I always notice smtng new!...💙)..but she sees her manicure things laid out on table...becuz Zilah lovingly puts her things out nite b4 apparently....but she sees something on Table...was it HIS( Sheik Ahmed) 🚬????ive tried 2rewind several x but not SURE....it looks like a cigarette...if so , is it suppost to be his??.then she looks concerned ..that he slept there ???.is that correct...????
Thanks again Jean. But thenn it " fades" into a dreamlike scene where Zilah is asleep on floor beside her ..then She looks and sees his cigarette. ..i dont understand.... someone explain please
Very good soundtrack! With all due respect the organ accompaniment puts me to sleep and makes me think of funerals! Rudolf Valentino is beyond beautiful! I think with coaching he probably would have done fine in sound movies, perhaps in supporting roles, but great nonetheless!
If only his last words in this movie. We're true. Why Rudy was dying in real life. " The Darkness has passed and now the sunshine. If only Rudy did not die that day long ago. It's nearly one hundred years ago that he died. I think 1926. That must have been a horrible sad day for the world. Just thinking about it makes me cry
@@karenhill3970 became medical technology was not as advanced as it was back then, like it is now. Really is horrible sad. Just like Bobby Darin. Same for his medical crisis back then.

Why can't I find a copy on RUclips of the movie with the original soundtrack? All these added soundtracks are just terrible. None of them are anything like the original.

He will ALWAYS be " THE Sheik"....he was so awesome in this part
Such great dialog..."do you know how beautiful you are"??
Are you not woman enough to know"?...0h.g-!!
Quite daring back then
@Thethimblethumb Oh, I agree.
He was such a beautiful man 👨. I would have loved him in talkies.
Me too!
How did god make him so beautiful in side and out 😇
and one knows he was modest about his talents ... worked on his roles, his dancing & moving his actor career forward ...
Probably in his time there were a lot of beautiful, bright and talented people, but apparently only he was given power over hearts.
No doubt this is FANTASTIC but THE SON OF THE SHEIK, with Valentino playing both father and son, is THE BEST as it refines and defines this, the first one.
