Arabian Nights20003 / 4

Synopsis of Story: An Arabian King is demented. His new wife delays her execution by telling intriguing stories that last night after night. These stories involve many exotic locales, comic figures and adventures. Adapted from the classic book, The central stories are "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves" and "Aladdin and His Lamp."

Folding Comment: The simple fold is a movie about a story in which stories are told. But there is a more complex fold in the presentation: the story is presented in a way where the storyteller is ambiguous. It could be told by the wife/slave of the ogre giant segment inserted in the beginning. or from the giant himself, or from a storyteller in the bazaar, or from one of the genies.
