Description:
Producer-director Alexander Korda approaches the story of Helen of Troy with a light touch, avoiding any serious treatment. Maria Corda plays the title character as a flirtatious woman, seemingly unaware of the political chaos she ignites when she is abducted by the handsome Paris (Ricardo Cortez). Helen's husband, King Menelaus (Lewis Stone), watches silently, much as he has when his wife has been charmed by other suitors (including "Wild Bill" Elliot). Eventually spurred to action, Menelaus retrieves his wife, who appears unfazed by her ordeal.
