The CinePearl Take

The Nightingale's Prayer is a classic-era Arabic film in the drama mould — expect character-driven, emotional storytelling. Henry Barakat directs and the script comes from Youssef Gohar and Henry Barakat. Mimi Chakib and Amina Rizk are among the leads. Made in Egypt, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring Arabic-language films. Released in 1959, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 109 minutes, it is a comfortable evening's watch.
