More important, Arab Leader Holm denounces the mission of both men-the soldier as well as the archaeologist-as "a rape of our heritage." But nobody pays much attention to what Holm says after he emerges as an opportunist who is only using the colonialist issue to unite the desert tribes in his own drive for power. This is a pity. In view of some of the tacky beach-front resorts that have since been built with foreign money along the Moroccan coast, one cannot help thinking that the fellow really had a point there...

The other three were married and guilty of adultery as well as rape. They were buried up to their waists in sand and stoned to death by a mob that used small rocks instead of boulders to prolong their agony. Sometimes the victims pay too.

It discusses the reasons for their delinquency, and describes the floundering juvenile justice system that must deal with them...
...Other Side of Midnight has the dubious distinction of containing more outrageously tacky moments than one ever would have though it possible to put into one movie. As the film moves from the slums of Marseilles to Paris, Washington, D.C., Hollywood and the Greek islands, we see one rape, several seductions and sex scenes, a self-inflicted abortion, two attempts at murder and an execution before a firing squad...
