Reportedly the favorite film of Francis Ford Coppola. When he first met Michael Powell, in a New York restaurant, Coppola introduced himself by walking across the room singing Sabu's song "I want to be a sailor" at the top of his lungs to show he was a fan.
THE THIEF OF BAGDAD (1940) | dir. Ludwig Berger, Michael Powell and Tim Whelan

Born 100 years ago today: Indian actor Sabu (Sabu Dastagir, 27 January 1924 – 2 December 1963). The doe-eyed and beauteous Sabu is particularly notable for being perhaps the sole Asian and Muslim major celebrity of Golden Age Hollywood. As with Chinese American star Anna May Wong in the twenties and thirties, the prejudiced dictates of the era limited the types of roles Sabu could play (in the Production Code there could be no hint of interracial romances depicted onscreen, for example) and he continued to portray “primitive” child-of-the-Islands stereotypes well into his thirties. (This is not meant as a diss on Sabu – he performed these parts with genuine aplomb and innate dignity). His most celebrated films include The Thief of Bagdad (1940), The Jungle Book (1942) and Black Narcissus (1947) but perversely, my favourite is camp classic Cobra Woman (1944) starring "the Caribbean Cyclone" Maria Montez – perhaps because Sabu cavorts in little more than a loincloth throughout. Sadly, Sabu died aged just 39 of heart disease.
