   Sent to investigate the mysterious disappearances of several officers and   
   explorers, Lt. de Saint-Avit and Capt. Morhange travel to the vast expanse of   
   the Sahara and discover a forgotten world. Lured to a hidden palace by Queen   
   Antinea, descendant of    
   the king of Atlantis, Saint-Avit and Morhange become pawns in a deadly quest   
   for immortality.    
      
   Directed by the renowned Jacques Feyder, this fantasy tale stars Georges   
   Melchior and Jean Angelo.   
   Cast Jean Angelo, Stacia Napierkowska, Georges Melchior, Marie-Louise Iribe,   
   Abd-el-Kader Ben Ali, Mohamed Ben Noui, Paul Franceschi, AndrĂ© Roanne   
   Director Jacques Feyder   
      
   A really different take on Atlantis.  Looks to have been shot in b&w then hand   
   tinted.  Most of it happens in the Algerian desert where it was filmed.  Wish   
   the disk had had, if not a full commentary track, at least an extra about the   
   making and cast.
