'''''Morocco''''', [[Josef von Sternberg]]'s first American film to star [[Marlene Dietrich]], ranks as his best, according to many film historians, rich in exotic atmosphere. [[Gary Cooper]] costars as a foreign legionnaire who wins Dietrich's heart with an economy of dialogue, and [[Adolphe Menjou]] plays a wealthy rake who competes for her affection. Dietrich, as a cabaret singer with androgynous appeal, looks sultry and performs three songs before trodding across the desert barefoot.
