The Strange Sphinx
This set was one of the most expensive and largest built at the time. It was 800 feet wide and 12 stories tall, using 250 tons of plaster and 25,000 nails. However, the strange thing was the decorations on the sphinx heads.
Technicolor
The film was black and white, but they were colored to stand out when Technicolor became available. Archaeologists were shocked by the intense shades used. Many scenes used color, but a few of them weren’t.
