What they share

Theysit in Fantasy / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Lake House, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Thief of Bagdad is

A film that pits palace intrigue against street-smart survival in a technicolor sandbox. After a coup steals his crown and sight, a deposed prince pairs with a pickpocket to outwit a sorcerer and reclaim a glittering city. A 1940s effects reel that forgot to keep its wit.
