Ten Tall Men (1951)
Directed by Willis Goldbeck this film stars Burt Lancaster and Jody Lawrance. During the Rif War soldiers of the French Foreign Legion kidnap a woman to stop two tribes allying.
This film is filled with the sort of suspect views of the Arab world that you expect from colonialist films. The plot is not up to a huge amount, it is an action/adventure film that goes through a number of expected beats. Even the budget seems to have been on the low side, it is very clear this is not filmed in North Africa.
2/5
