About the film
Solomon and Sheba is a 1959 American Biblical epic historical drama film directed by King Vidor, shot in Technirama (color by Technicolor), and distributed by United Artists. The film dramatizes events described in the tenth chapter of First Kings and the ninth chapter of Second Chronicles. It centers on the relationship between King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, played by Yul Brynner and Gina Lollobrigida, respectively. The cast also features George Sanders, Marisa Pavan, David Farrar and Harry Andrews. The film differs substantially from Biblical sources and is highly fictionalized, most notably in representing the Queen of Sheba as an ally of ancient Egypt in opposition to King Solomon of Israel, and in her having a love affair with Solomon.

How to watch it together from different places
Each of you opens Solomon and Sheba on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
