Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Clearly inspired by the then-current publicity blitz surrounding the Elizabeth Taylor film version of Cleopatra, this Twilight Zone episode was credited to scriptwriter Charles Beaumont, even though Jerry Sohl did the actual writing. Ann Blyth stars as Pamela Morris, a seemingly ageless movie queen. Determined to find out why Pamela is as beautiful as she was during the silent-film era, journalist Jordan Herrick (Lee Herrick) shows up at the actress' home for an interview. He ends up getting the story of his life -- which turns out to be a significant shorter life than that enjoyed by Pamela Morris. "Queen of the Nile" first aired March 6, 1964.
