Ruby Cairo, also known as Deception, is a 1992 drama thriller film directed by Graeme Clifford. It stars Andie MacDowell, Liam Neeson and Viggo Mortensen.

Production

Production on Ruby Cairo began as early as 1989, when director Graeme Clifford and screenwriter Robert Dillon traveled to Egypt to research locations for the project, with the script's subject matter and locations approved by the country's Ministry of Antiquities and Ministry of Culture. By July 1991, Clifford and producer Lloyd Philips had begun scouting locations in Egypt.

Principal photography began on August 5, 1991, with production taking place in Los Angeles, Veracruz, Berlin, Athens, and Cairo. Actress Olympia Dukakis was reportedly hired for scenes taking place in Veracruz, but she does not appear in the final film.The film was said to be budgeted at $40 million, $2 million of which was to be spent in Egypt; the budget was ultimately shrunk to $24 million instead.

Complications arose when film equipment was detained in Alexandria, which resulted in unexpected paperwork and fees to secure their return. Despite the approval of the Egyptian ministries, the unnamed on-set censor vehemently opposed numerous costumes, locations, and background actors within scenes that could potentially misrepresent the city and its people, and reportedly covered the camera lens with her hand.

New York Times and Los Angeles Times articles published between November and December 1991 describe an extended version of a scene in which the character Fergus Lamb, played by Liam Neeson, hits a golf ball from the top of the Great Pyramid of Giza into the swimming pool of the Mena House Hotel 800 yards away.
