1950's Mythological Adventure Film

When I was a child in the late 1950's I saw a movie about a mythological hero, possibly Hercules, who battled various perils on his travels. There were a fixed number of trials that he had to endure. In one scene he strugged against a group of men with faces that appeared to be encased in leather without eyes or mouths. After he warded them off, he flew off to his next adventure on a winged horse.

I'd like to know the name of this movie and watch it again after so many years.

Could it possibly have been from the early sixties? If so, maybe: The Thief of Bagdad (1961) (http://youtu.be/MFMZF9WVaIA?t=3m9s)

That's it! Thanks so much. How did you figure that out?
