6/10
Entertaining adventure film from '69-70
19 August 2023
A sort of spaghetti western filmed in Turkey in 1969 relating to the Greco-Turkish War of 1922. Tony Curtis (''Spartacus'' (1960) and ''Insignificance'' (1983)) is a genial, wise-cracking adventurer accompanied by taciturn slit-eyed US-Lithuanian actor, Charles Bronson (''Vera Cruz'' (1954) and ''Chato's Land'' (1972)). Curtis's character sports a brown leather jacket, bright-green tie and thick sideburns. His one-liners and ad-libs are hilarious. Full of explosive set-pieces and action shots it records the 'Eastern Promise', colours and stunning landscapes of Cappadocia and Turkey. The end of the '60s/beginning of the '70s were exciting years.
