Radio review – Escape – “She” (1947) ***

30 minute version of the Haggard novel doesn’t devote much of it’s time to Ayesha, more on the adventures getting there. It’s a decent condensation with decent performances – they probably could have cut loose a bit more. While you can use your mind to imagine the beauty of Ayesha you still hear her voice (a bit feature of the character’s attraction in the novel) – and that's not that great here.
