Anthony Quinn stars as the deformed bell-ringer Quasimodo, and silver-screen siren Gina Lollobrigida portrays the seductive, breathtaking gypsy dancer Esmeralda in this haunting tale of passion and desire based on Victor Hugo's immortal novel. After Esmeralda befriends the hideous outcast ensconced in Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral bell tower, he falls hopelessly in love with her and is willing to sacrifice himself to save her from the gallows.
