We'll find it.

The scrolls haven't been wrong yet.

We must look for an opening

somewhere there among the rocks.

We must be close.

Hurry, Rafi!

Nothing... nothing.

I could not find an entrance.

We must make an entrance.

Rafi, Minaton, stay clear!

Spirits of the underworld,

infuse this potion with your powers!

What was that?

- It's like an earthquake.

- There can only be one possible answer.

The witch.

Zenobia.

- He'll never break through.

- He must! He must!

He must!

Minaton, pull!

He's done it!

He's done his work.

The wall is breached!

- Look there!

- Zenobia's creation.

- A bull's head, but a...

...giant's body!

Almighty God, defend us.

They shouldn't have forced an opening.

The power of the shrine is threatened!

The atmosphere inside is destroyed!

This key is useless!

Perhaps there's still time,

but we must be swift!

Drawn down

from the crown of Apollo itself.

The guardian of the shrine...

The ice is melting.

Look out!

- We must act at once!

- The cage... and the chains!

Just as described in the scrolls.

We must put Kassim in the cage and

pass him through the column of light.

Sinbad, the chains!

See if they still operate.

- Thank all the gods.

- The gods have abandoned you!

Too late, Sinbad!

Kassim will never be caliph!

Now, Rafi, now!

Not the animal, kill Melanthius!

They are helpless without him.

Sinbad, bring Kassim.

May the gods of the Arimaspi

grant us the time!

Bring him up, bring him up!

O great Apollo! All you gods and forces

that work for good against evil, -

- help us now! O great mystery,

come to our mortal aid!

Reveal your secret!

Lower the cage!

Your Highness.

Prince Kassim...

This way, Your Highness.

Master Melanthius,

he made it all possible.

- How shall I ever thank you?

- It's an old debt repaid.

The power of the shrine is failing! We

must go! There's not a moment to lose.

The temperature's changing violently.

Be swift or this'll become our tomb!

Zenobia!

She's gone!

Stand back! Get back!

- Come on, let's go!

- No, not yet.

Now, move! Move!

Take Dione and the princess

back to the gate.

- We shall not leave you!

- Do as I say!

If I do not join you within an hour,

then head for Charak -

- before the seventh moon is full.

Maroof is dead.

They're coming!

Where's Maroof?

Come on, we must not waste a moment.

Beverley Cross

Alan Beverley Cross (13 April 1931 – 20 March 1998) (known as Beverley Cross) was an English playwright, librettist and screenwriter.Born in London into a theatrical family, and educated at the Nautical College Pangbourne, Cross started off by writing children's plays in the 1950s. He achieved instant success with his first play, One More River, which dealt with a mutiny in which a crew puts its first officer on trial for manslaughter. The play premiered in 1958 at the New Shakespeare Theatre Liverpool, starring Robert Shaw, directed by Sam Wanamaker, and in 1959, still with Robert Shaw, directed by Guy Hamilton at the Duke Of York's Theatre in London. Cross' second play, Strip the Willow, was to make a star out of his future wife, Dame Maggie Smith, even though the play was staged only in the provinces, never receiving a London production. In 1962, he translated Marc Camoletti's classic farce Boeing Boeing, which went on to have a lengthy and highly lucrative run in the West End. In 1964, he directed the play in Sydney. Another of his successes was Half a Sixpence, a musical comedy based on the H.G. Wells novel Kipps. This opened in 1963 and, like his first play, ran in London for more than a year. He also wrote opera librettos for Richard Rodney Bennett (The Mines of Sulphur, All the King's Men and Victory) and Nicholas Maw (The Rising of the Moon). Cross later became well known for his screenplays, notably Jason and the Argonauts, The Long Ships, Genghis Khan, and Clash of the Titans. He also adapted Half a Sixpence for the screen. He also worked uncredited on the script for Lawrence of Arabia, although it is doubtful whether any of his material made it to the final edit. He died in London in 1998, three weeks and three days before his 67th birthday. He was the stepfather of Maggie Smith's children from her earlier marriage, actors Toby Stephens and Chris Larkin. more…
