#Bales2023FilmChallenge April 14: A dolphin spotted on #NationalDolphinDav
Shot on location in #Greece, sponge diver Phaedra (Sophia Loren) makes a splash when she finds an ancient statue of A Boy on a Dolphin*, rumoured to bring good luck to her town. Her attempts to sell it to the highest bidder makes not only the bronze but also her the object of desire of an honest archaeologist and an unscrupulous playboy antiques dealer.
* not only the title of this movie bus also possibly a reference to #Arion, son of the inhabitants of Lesbos (would that make this movie a bit too wild for 1957?), or #Taras, son of Poseidon and Satyrion. According to Greek legend, both mythological characters were saved by #dolphins.
