Quotes
  • The Poet: May your taxes increase! [Said when acting as a beggar to get the Baghdad merchants to give him alms]
    Trivia
  • Another number excluded from the movie was the Vizier`s theme song, "I Was Wazir." It was probably not used in the movie because of the bizarre punishments described in the song, including that of a royal flute player who lost his grasp on his instrument, and who the Vizier had bitten by an asp.
  • There was a number in the original musical called "Zubbediyah, Sameris` Dance" that was later excluded from the movie version; it was performed by Princess Zubbediyah, the woman who the Caliph was supposed to marry.
  • Movie rights cost $125,000.
