Plot
A snake charmer's genie helps rescue his master's sweetheart (Princess Zelia) from a wicked caliph. Released in the U.S. at the same time as the animated Italian feature I Fratelli Dinamite, La Rosa di Bagdad demonstrated that Disney held no monopoly on clever cartoonery. Inspired by the Arabian Nights, the story concerns a beautiful princess, a poor-but-honest hero, an evil sultan, and a slave of the lamp. Reviewers in 1949 were much taken by director Anton Gino Domeghini's clever choice of camera angles, and by Riccardo Pick Mangiagalli's musical score.
Reception and Release
The film was generally received poorly from critics in North America, receiving an AMG rating of only two stars. Many critics cited how out-of-date the animation quality was, owing heavily to the long delay between its original creation and American dubbing. The film went unreleased on home video until late in 2005 when Lionsgate Home Entertainment produced a DVD in limited quantity
