Isabel Mestres as Salome is magnificent.

A scene rightly not too sensual (because it's a movie about Christ), but it has something exquisitely psychedelic! 👍

Isabel Mestres does a marvelous turn as the child-princess with an ice-covered soul and hatchet in hand, but it is Valentina Cortese's reptilian Herodias that makes this scene unforgettable. The ambivalent little twitch of her mouth at the end of Salome's dance scarcely dares to register satisfaction for fear of the evil she has unleashed. Each the three principal players has his own unholy moment of consummation here, but the queen's is creepiest. Cortese as Herodias is unsurpassably corrupt.

Love Herodias in this!!! Actress did an EXCEPTIONAL job!!! Bravo!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

[izievalo]

She did justice to the whole essence of Salome!

Maurice Jarre is an amazing music composer. It intrigues me too much where he could search for ancient music in Herod's times. Specially in the seventies when it was no any Internet available, R.

Wanna feel old? Isabel Mestres turns 73 this December. Crazy!

According to my dance teachers, Salome's dance was a belly dance.  Likely NOT the modern Belly dance, but a dance for childbirth and for women only.  It was considered risque' back then, taboo.  That is by my teacher's opinion.  Serena, RIP, was one of them

Christopher Plummer as Herod Antipas is so attractive, I certainly wouldn't mind being Salome

[Aramanth]

I’m impressed, better than Rita Hayworth

[jasonengelage]

Her biggest mistake was asking her mother what she should ask for.  I don't think she really wanted John The Baptist's head but her mother did.  I think if truth be told she wanted something else like a place in the kingdom or even a husband and was horrified when she saw the head and thinking "What have I done?".  Her mother wanted John The Baptist dead because he was preaching against divorce and remarriage which Herod and her mother were in which The Bible calls adultery.

Wait a minute. Salome was not only Herod's stepdaughter she was also his niece. She was the daughter of Herodias and Philip, who was Herod's half brother. BTW Herodias was also their half sister!!!

[terrancebigham]

The most chaste Salome dance in history!

[BlodDot]

they dramatized and intensified it. dance if meant to be graceful and by it's simplicity, he could be attracted to it. you don't need to add fuel to this fire.

Isabel Mestres, a
Salome incomparable, much better than Brigid Bazlen or Gabriella Pessione (who were not a disgrace), even more than Rita Hayworth (an incomparable living legend, which is saying a lot).

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
