UnFabiolous,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Fabiola (DVD)
Fabiola was a major international success when it was released abroad in 1947. Boasting gigantic sets, crowds of thousands and a stellar international cast-Fabiola told its story of Christian martydom in 150 minutes. With its massive recreation of the Colisseum, gladiatorial bouts, the Christian persecution. It was a sight to behold. In 1951 Hercules producer Joe Levine took the original film, edited it down to 89 minutes and dubbed it into English--just to get the jump on MGM's massive Quo Vadis which basically covered the same territory. Fabiola is better in its original running time--even in black and white. This is the grindhouse version. Beware.

Good against odds,

This review is from: Fabiola (DVD)
This is a chopped-up version of the film aimed at the American market. Some of the chopping is pretty obvious. I would have preferred the original Italian version, which appears to have vanished from the face of the earth. On the up side, it's a great old movie with great performances that I wanted to own, and now I do.

Good (almost Great) News: DVD release of complete version in France,
By D. Diamond (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fabiola (DVD)
From IMDb.com, Jan., 2011: In 2010, FABIOLA was released on DVD in France by Gaumont in two parts, "Fabiola 1re époque - Mirage de Rome" and "Fabiola 2e époque - Le sang des martyrs." The film appears to be complete, but is in French only, with optional French closed captioning. The DVDs are currently on offer at Amazon.fr.
