I, too, grew up listening to the soundtrack. Mom had it playing along with "Sound of Music" and a couple Montovani records, among others, as backround music during the day.

Nobody who was born within 5000 miles of Baghdad had anything to do with "Kismet".

No, those can wait. Pita bread is the problem now.

‘What’s next? Ban all the Sinbad movies_________’

Are you kidding me? Not a matter of ‘if’ - only when. . . . .

Anyone catch Gene Kelly’s ‘Invitation To The Dance’ last night on TCM?

Believe there were 3 vignette’s - 2 of which had much mime, not enough dancing.
But the last one, called ‘Sinbad The Sailor,’ had Gene Kelly dancing like never before, I think. Along with a young boy who was the best kid dancer I have ever seen. Wonder what became of him - - -
Needless to say, there was much Arabian ‘stereotyping,’ in the routine - much of it in cartoon form, with Kelly inserted ‘live.’

But I missed the best - “The Red Shoes”, the movie just before ‘Invitation - - - ‘ No matter - I have the DVD.
