NOTES

GENRE: Adventure

WORDS: I saw this film many moons ago, in 1984, and I recall liking it. I haven’t seen it since. I love Anthony Quinn, and James Coburn is only a smidge below the love level. I watch all their films. The bonus here is, the film is directed by Alexander Mackendrick (Sweet Smell of Success, Don’t Make Waves). I haven’t read the novel.
