She is a lavish 1965 British adventure-fantasy film produced by Hammer Film Productions, based on the classic 1887 novel by H. Rider Haggard. The film stars the iconic Ursula Andress (fresh from her breakthrough in Dr. No) as Ayesha, the beautiful and mysterious immortal queen, known as “She Who Must Be Obeyed”, who rules a lost city deep in the remote African interior.
The plot follows three English adventurers who stumble upon the queen’s domain and become entangled in her ancient quest for a lost lover’s reincarnation. Characterized by its stunning Technicolor cinematography, exotic locations, and elaborate costume design, She successfully blended adventure, romance, and supernatural themes. It remains a memorable entry in Hammer’s non-horror repertoire and solidified Andress’s status as a screen siren of the 1960s.
