Reception
"Werb." of Variety found the film to be a "modest imitation" of American styled romantic adventure films, noting "fine photography, sets, costuming and music" but that "screenplay is one of the major flaws but it is difficult to determine whether vet Italo writer Ennio De Concini and director Duccio Tessari are responsible or whether fault is with collaborators Brian Degas and Tudor Gates."[2]
gollark: Do we put it on some planet or in stellar orbit?
gollark: Really, why not have a giant laser system *anyway*?
gollark: Exciting!
gollark: Or, as <@332271551481118732> sort of suggested, blast chunks off it for mining.
gollark: I guess with a lot of heatproofing you could use geothermal power.
