"By the time of "Sodom," Rózsa wasn't exactly being offered choice projects. "Sodom" was followed by the equally dreadful "The V.I.P.s" followed by the incomprehensible "The Power" followed by the extraordinarily bad "The Green Berets." Then came Billy Wilder's "The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes" which was one semi-good picture among so many turds. But that was followed by "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad" which was one of Ray Harryhausen's worst films..."
Ed, if you keep holding back your feelings you'll get an ulcer. You're among friends, tell us what you really think...
'Sodom wasn't a stinker, it was merely an above average "spear and sandal" import. If you were at Fox at the time, you may recall the film was supposed to open as a roadshow attraction, and then was wide released (I think under the "showcase" banner). I love "The Vip's," a wonderfully romantic soaper. Harryhausen made worse films than "Golden Voyage," but I still find it incomprensible, as I do "The Power." All of the films you mentioned have one common denominator: Rozsa's music. I've sat through many a stinker (paying to do so in their original release) only because of the composer.
