I am also looking for the movie about a blue rose. I belive it came out in the 70's or late 60's it came out on the family film festival with Tom Hatten. Its a king or some kind of empore daughter that was cast a spell from a witch that she would die unless someone would return with the blue rose. In the end someone came back with blue rose but in a fight the rose was cut in half & die. some women tells this guy if you trully love this girl any rose he touches will turn blue. the blue rose is on a mountin in a room with all glass walls

Answer
Hello Gabriel,

This was the 1961 Italian fantasy-adventure film starring Steeve Reeves as Karim, "The Thief Of Bagdad".

A riddle must be solved to begin the journey of the 7 Gates which will lead to the magical Blue Rose: 'Begin in the East, through the door that is not there.'  Then follows a series of adventures with walking trees, a flying horse, boiling lava, floods and a cloak of invisibility. At the end, he doesn't get the rose back intact, so he takes a white rose and says, "If you love me, this will turn blue?" She replies, "Yes, Karim, it's a blue rose," and then the white rose turns blue.
