In the golden age of 1950s Hollywood adventure films, few actors embodied youthful heroism as naturally as Jeffrey Hunter. At that time, Jeffrey Hunter was one of 20th Century-Fox’s rising contract stars. One of the most colorful entries in his early career was the 1954 fantasy-adventure film Princess of the Nile. In this film, he played a courageous foreign prince opposite Debra Paget, who portrayed a princess secretly resisting corruption and invaders.
