'Pandora And The Flying Dutchman'

My only real remark on this film is why the graphic artists were intent on making Ava Gardner as wholly unattractive as possible on just about every poster for this film.

At times she looks fat. Others her body and face are so distorted that it looks unequivocally like someone else, someone less attractive. Even in the poster here James Mason looks like a retarded James Dean.

Generally though, the hideous posters basically are the only interesting tidbit of a pretty boring movie. I mean, she was his wife reincarnated. It’d been better if she had left him and let him roam for eternity upon the high seas. Because, you know, he murdered her in a jealous rage 500 years earlier.
