Bagdad is a 1949 Technicolor American adventure film directed by Charles Lamont starring Maureen O'Hara, Paul Hubschmid (billed as "Paul Christian"), and Vincent Price. O'Hara called it "a 'tits and sand' picture...one of the films that I point to as part of my decorative years but audiences love them."[3]
