Welcome to Love
Featuring a tour-de-force performance by sour-faced Abd us-Salim in-Nabulsy as the puffed-up Professor Hamdi, 'the greatest of all scientists, a modern-day Edison, and the overlooked inventor of nasal batteries and youth elixir', whose latest scheme involves projecting the mind beyond the body. With his every self-aggrandizing utterance accompanied by a deluded-yet-delightful 'do you know who I am?' expression, the film showcases the actor at the top of his game, and it's hard to accept that he succumbed to cancer aged 64 just weeks after production had wrapped.
