Robert Duncan is great here. Stars Deborah Kerr and appears to be an attempt to follow up The Innocents, but clunks along in a very obvious fashion with fairly weak cinematography. David Hemmings, who sang for Benjamin Britten in the premiere of The Turn of the Screw ('Hemmings the Menace Sings Opera in Venice') has an important secondary role. At the time this was made James George Frazer's The Golden Bough, with its discussion of the 'sacred king', was still widely known. Gratuitous scene where David Niven whips Sharon Tate.
