....was cast in Henri-Georges Clouzot's masterpiece "Manon" before her Hathaway film;her career was short-lived but she triumphed in the field of series-for -the-whole-family with her "Belle et Sebastien" saga -four or five seasons-starring her own son,Mehdi El Glaoui.
Her performance in "black rose" in not particularly memorable;neither is the film,which is far from Hathaway's great adventures films such as "lives of a Bengal lancer" or even "legend of the lost" .the desultory script which takes the audience from Norman England to China is never really exciting .Tyrone Power and Jack Hawkins are a good pairing (along Welles who does not seem to care about his character).Their situation in the court of the empress of China will remind some users of Kipling 's "the man who would be king" which John Huston transferred to the screen masterfully with M.Caine and S.Connery.(1975)
