Even when you know all the tricks, the primordial power of the 1933 black and white stop action ACTION thrills.
I do not need high tech special effects---it could just be my longing for nostalgia, but I believe hands down that this beats either of the remakes.
An RKO classic!

A documentary film (Paramount, 1925).
50,000 nomads cross Persia.
C (Indifferent).
Not bad for an ethnographic film. I wasn't exactly entertained, but it was interesting and surpisingly educational.
