Was this the movie that the hero had to find a blue rose to heal the princess, then she would marry him?
And at the end, he didn't get it back intact, so he took a white rose and said, "If you love me, this will turn blue?"
That was one of my favorite movies as a kid. I remember I HAD to watch it at my friends house, because they had a color TV and we only had black and white. And you needed color to see the rose change in the climatic ending.
"If you love me, Amina, then this is a blue rose." Yep, this is the film.
(When she took it, looked at him and said, "Yes, Karim, it's a blue rose," her tone sounds as if she were just humoring him, like she'd thought he'd gone a little wacky. But then the rose turned blue....)
Nice music, too.

shareYeah..."Look for it - where it isn't" ..lol. I've always wondered why the Sultan, in the beginning seemed to have Stage 2 Alzheimers, then later he was fine?
