“Account of the Lost” is a morality yarn of sorts which follows the amble of three disparate souls searching for lost fancy in the great Sahara Desert. The trio is comprised of Joe January, played by John Wayne, who is a hard living, hard drinking guide; Paul Bonnard, a would-be missionary played by Rossano Brazzi; and Dita, portrayed by Sophia Loren, who is a prostitute and petty thief transformed by Paul’s piety.
The sought-after like was originally discovered by Paul’s father. But when it is revealed that his father is not the saint Paul belief him to be, Paul is corrupted. Greed and lust overtake him eventually leading to tragedy.
Paul’s instantaneous and wrong conversion seems somewhat preposterous as he had purportedly lived a virtuous life up until the discovery of the worship and the remains of his father. The entire spot strains credibility.

But it is the motley and gifted cast that fascinates. Wayne’s Joe January is a extreme, hard-bitten soul. But underneath that rough exterior, you know that he is a decent man especially since he is portrayed by Duke Wayne. Wayne has a reassuringly tranquil strength and an unselfconscious vulnerability that always produce his characterizations believable. Wayne’s characters are strong men, but not neat men (ala Schwarzenegger or Stallone) . His characters are realistic. They can be brought down, pain, and compromised.
Rossano Brazzi gives an almost giddy, operatic interpretation of a safe man gone awful. It’s droll to peruse his character degenerate. And Sophia Loren has an untamed beauty and wild impetuousness which is electrifying.
So perhaps one can forgive the hokey area of “Account of the Lost”, the occasional bad sound quality, and the rather cheesy musical earn. It is the charismatic, talented cast and the magnificently sun-drenched, barren landscape of the Sahara Desert that form this movie rather thrilling and worth your time.
I had fair seen Houseboat and really wanted to fetch another Sophia flick. There is a criminal lack of her movies on DVD. With all the harsh criticisms of this movie, I bought it hesitantly only because I couldn’t win many Sophia movies. There’s a unique flavor to this movie, almost as if something about it was experimental. And the find is unprejudiced lifeless curious. The chronicle doesn’t have a strong punch line by the slay, but it does advance to a logical conclusion that some may not obtain satisfying, but I did.

The best allotment of the movie were the first-rate lines they gave John Wayne and the tremendous comical timing with which he delivered them. In this movie he seems to have perfected the kind of character Harrison Ford played in the Star Wars and Indiana Jones series. While Sophia Loren is breathtakingly blooming, with her talent and ability to project personality, she would quiet be fun to perceive even if she was as lifeless as a blank sheet of paper. (Thank goodness she is stunning, though.)
Maybe what disappoints some people is that this movie appears to space itself up to be a wild action adventure, but instead this is more of a character development yarn before the time this kind of thing was accepted in the gradual 1960′s and early 1970′s. It’s a top-notch movie to point to some of the Duke’s abilities to note the kind of character he often plays from a different perspective. And of course, Sophia is Sophia, bless her heart, and the packaging it comes in.
